Peanutty Pops

By newbaucher

"When my two sons were young, these pops were a favorite treat, and they still enjoy them," writes Lynn Lehman of Superior, Wisconsin. "They're fast and easy to make and don't melt as quickly as some frozen treats. For a variety, you can add mint chocolate chips, mini marshmallows or chopped banana."

• 1 cup cold water
• 1/2 cup sugar
