Total Time: 10 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 6 popsicles
Ingredients
- 2 cups low-fat yogurt
- 1/2 cup crushed Oreo cookies
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tbsp honey (optional)
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 2 cups of low-fat yogurt, 1/2 cup of crushed Oreo cookies, 1/4 cup of milk, and 1 tablespoon of honey (if desired).
- In a mixing bowl, add the 2 cups of low-fat yogurt. This will serve as the creamy base for your popsicles.
- If you are using honey for added sweetness, drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey into the yogurt and mix well until fully combined.
- Next, pour in the 1/4 cup of milk to the yogurt mixture. This will help achieve a smoother consistency, making it easier to blend with the other ingredients.
- Gently fold in the 1/2 cup of crushed Oreo cookies into the yogurt mixture. Make sure the cookies are evenly distributed throughout the mixture for a delightful cookie crunch in every bite.
- Once everything is well combined, taste the mixture. If you prefer it sweeter, you can add a little more honey at this point and mix again.
- Prepare your popsicle molds by ensuring they are clean and ready to be filled. If you have a popsicle stick, make sure to have them on hand.
- Carefully spoon the yogurt and cookie mixture into the popsicle molds, filling each mold about 3/4 full to allow for expansion as they freeze.
- Insert the popsicle sticks into the molds, making sure they are centered. If your molds do not have sticks, you can cover the molds with aluminum foil and poke the sticks through the foil.
- Place the filled molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until solid.
- Once the popsicles are fully frozen, remove them from the molds by running warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds to help release them.
- Enjoy your Skinny Cookies n' Cream Popsicles as a refreshing and guilt-free treat!
Tips
- Choose the Right Yogurt: Opt for a low-fat yogurt that you enjoy eating plain. Greek yogurt can also be a great choice for added protein and creaminess.
- Crush the Oreos: For the best texture, crush your Oreo cookies into small pieces, but not too fine. You want to maintain some crunch in every bite!
- Customize Your Sweetness: The honey is optional, so taste your mixture before adding it. If you prefer a sweeter popsicle, feel free to adjust the amount of honey to suit your taste.
- Experiment with Flavors: Try adding a splash of vanilla extract or a sprinkle of cocoa powder for an extra flavor boost!
- Mold Preparation: If you have silicone molds, they make it easier to release the popsicles. If using plastic molds, running warm water over them for a few seconds will help release the popsicles smoothly.
- Storage Tips: If you have leftovers, wrap them in plastic wrap or store them in a sealed container to keep them fresh and prevent freezer burn.Enjoy making these delightful popsicles, and get ready to impress your family and friends with this simple yet scrumptious treat!
