Frozen Pudding Pops

Oh how I love summer. This summer, I was determined to do more fun stuff. One of those...make homemade popsicles! Luckily, I found these recipes and LOVE them! I've realized that you can make any flavor. However, these are some of my favorites!

Strawberries and Cream Pudding Pops
1 small box instant vanilla pudding
1 C milk
6oz vanilla yogurt (strawberry is great too){I used greek...ah-mazing!}
12 medium strawberries (about 1 3/4-2 C roughly chopped)
2-3 T sugar {Definitely didn't need this}

remove stems from berries and pulse with 2 T sugar in a food processor until completely smooth. Taste and add more sugar if needed. You should have just over a cup of puree. Set aside.

In a blender combine pudding, yogurt, and milk and blend until combined. Layer or swirl the pudding mixture with the strawberry mixture in popsicle molds and freeze until solid.

There are a few other flavors on the site, but these are the only ones I've tried. And...yum.
