Stay cool this summer with these creamy and delicious strawberry cheesecake popsicles. Just 5 ingredients and a quick blitz in the blender gives you a delicious frozen treat!
You will need:
Fresh strawberries - 10oz
Cream cheese - 8 oz, softened
Milk - 1 cup
Powdered sugar - ¼ cup
Lemon juice - 1 tbsp
How to:
In a blender, puree strawberries, reserving 4-5 whole berries. If berries are sweet enough, there is no need to sweeten the puree, otherwise, add a couple of spoons of sugar. Remove to a bowl and set aside.
Wash blender and blend together the rest of the ingredients to make a light cheesecake mixture.
Fill popsicle molds or small glasses alternately with strawberry puree and cheesecake mixture. Chop up the reserved berries and add them too. Swirl lightly with a toothpick or thin skewer.
Pop the popsicle molds into the freezer. After an hour, stick in popsicle sticks, cover and freeze until solid, 4-6 hours or overnight.
Remove frozen popsicles from molds by running warm water outside the molds or placing them in a bowl of warm water for a couple of minutes.
Notes:
1. You can replace strawberries with other berries or summer fruit like peaches, cherries, etc.
