These Healthy Strawberry Cheesecake Pops take me right back to my childhood. My mom used to make a version of these for me and my brothers and now I love to make them with my kids! These pops are really easy to make and they are healthy too thanks to using low fat cream cheese and fat free yoghurt.
I make these pops by whisking warmed milk and sugar together with cream cheese, yoghurt and vanilla. Once this mix has cooled. Then I blend up the strawberries, lemon juice and corn syrup. I layer up the two mixes in ice pop molds and freeze. The hardest bit is waiting for the pops to freeze!
To make Healthy Strawberry Cheesecake Pops, you will need the following ingredients:
Heat the milk and sugar together in a small saucepan over medium heat for about 3 minutes.
Add the cream cheese to a bowl. Slowly pour in the heated milk mixture, whisking constantly until it is smooth.
Mix in the vanilla extract and yogurt. Set to one side and allow to cool completely.
In a food processor or blender, blend the strawberries, corn syrup and lemon juice until completely smooth.
Divide half of the creamy mixture between six 4 oz ice pop molds. Then add some of the strawberry mixture to each followed by some more creamy mixture. This will give a layered appearance once the frozen pops are removed from the molds. Stir each ice pop gently with a skewer to slightly mingle the different mixtures.
Freeze until the ice pops are solid. This should take about 4 hours.
Remove the strawberry cheesecake pops from the molds and dip into the graham cracker crumbs before eating.
These Healthy Strawberry Cheesecake Pops are a great summer treat for kids and adults alike. Try them soon and remember to tag #cookmerecipes if you post pics!
Yummy-yummy!
