I love icy treats in summer time. Being a Maryland girl I grew up on Snow Balls, Not Snow Cones - those rocks of ice with syrup on top, a snow ball is a great concoction of shaved or finely crushed ice with the syrup distributed evenly throughout, and if you are lucky it has some marshmallow fluff on top! But I digress, I'm just sad I haven't had a snow ball yet and got carried away...I was so excited when a friend was having a fundraiser for cancer via tupperware! I bought a popsicle mold that I have wanted for a while and I made sure to put it to good use right away. This popsicle is creamy, sweet and fruity and pretty darn healthy! I know I will be experimenting with all different kids of popsicles but right now I am real happy this was my first attempt.
Watermelon Cream Popsicle: Serves 6
2C Cubed Seedless Watermelon
1TB Sugar
3TB Cream Cheese (I use 1/3 less fat)
1/2tsp Lime Juice
Place all the ingredients in a blender and blend away! Pour into the mold, add the sticks, and place in the freezer for a few hours. If you don't have a mold you can always use those small paper bathroom cups and the wooden popsicle sticks, then just peel them off when your ready to enjoy!

Jillian,
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love your recipes and I make something from your site at least once a week. These popsicles are for the kids we have coming over for 4th of July. One request - would it be possible for you to put a "print" button on your recipes? Thanks!
Amanda
Amanda, so glad to hear you have found some things to make! I will look into a print button, If you click on the title of the recipe it should take you to a link for just that recipe and you can print through your browser just that recipe. I also have an email subscription link on the column on the right that will email you each new recipe the night that they are posted which may be easier to print from!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I will look into both. :)
ReplyDeleteI blogged about this recipe today. I hope that is OK. Please let me know if "borrowing" the photo or link is not alright with you. I can easily change it! Hopefully you will get some traffic from that post. Your recipes are great!
ReplyDeleteAmanda - that is completely okay! I am so glad it worked out for you and I appreciate you mentioning Jillian's Kitchen on your site!
