Strawberries and Cream Pops

By cwyorkiex3

For flavor variety, substitute butterscotch, chocolate or banana pudding for the vanilla pudding.
For a tropical twist, substitute mango or pineapple for the strawberries.
For easy removal of paper cups, run warm water over outside of cup, pulling gently on stick until pop comes free.

Ingredients

• 10 paper cups (3-oz size)
• 1 box (4-serving size) vanilla instant pudding and pie filling mix
• 2 cups milk
• 1 1/2 cups frozen strawberries, thawed
• 3 tablespoons honey
• Foil
• 10 craft sticks (flat wooden sticks with round ends)

Preparation

Step 1

Place paper cups in rectangular pan. Make pudding as directed on box for pudding, using milk. Spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoons pudding into each cup.

In blender, place strawberries and honey. Cover; blend on high speed 30 seconds or until pureed. Pour strawberry mixture over top of pudding, dividing evenly among cups. Spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoons pudding over strawberry mixture.

Cover each cup with foil; insert stick through foil into each pop. Freeze 2 hours or until firm. To serve, remove from cups.
