I love popsicles because they are cheap and they make little kids happy. :) I have my own version for post-pubescent women, which I came up with on a whim from an iced coffee recipe. Post-pubescent, because they contain chocolate, and everyone knows real women need chocolate. The coffee is just thrown in for an added bonus.
Next time you are pouring Kool-Aid (okay, juice, for you healthy people) into your popsicle molds, save one for yourself. I keep this treasure mixed up in the fridge in a half-gallon jug:
Iced Coffee
2 C warm water
3 T instant coffee
14 oz can (1 C) fat free sweetened condensed milk
2 C milk
2-4 T chocolate syrup
Mix together and store in fridge. Shake before pouring.
To make one tall serving, whip 1 C in blender with 5-6 ice cubes. Sip joyfully.
Or
make Momsicles:
Pour into popsicle molds and freeze.
Indulge yourself while the kids are running around the yard
with the colored sugar-water variety.

I just made a 'Momsicle' for myself! lol thanks for the recipe, I am so excited to try it after school tomorrow, on a hot day!! It sounds so nummy :)
ReplyDeleteOh Anna, you are a girl after my own heart. Your comment gave me a craving, and I had to go have another one. ♥
DeleteOoooooh that sounds delicious! (I love iced coffee - but I've just been buying it in the carton at the grocery store. This sounds much more cost effective.)
ReplyDeleteOld me would have jumped on this one, but new me must press on to the bigger goal of being a healthy weight one day, sigh. :-) Sounds great though!
ReplyDeleteYUM!!! Coffe and Chocolate are one of my treats I give myself often, now I can have a frozen one! THANK YOU!!
ReplyDeleteThese look divine! The gals and I will have to make them soon.
