Strawberries & Cream Pudding Push-ups




Have you seen the clear push-up pops that you can buy and fill? I saw these and immediately had one of those "gotta-have-it" moments. They have so many possibilities--fill 'em with frozen desserts, candy, or even layer cake and frosting. Two mini cupcakes fit perfectly in a push-up pop. And they can be decorated to add to the cuteness.

I decided to try some pudding pops in my push-ups. This recipe is so tasty, and turns out a very pretty push-up with the layers and swirls. How fun would it be to bring some of these to your 4th of July party?!?!

Strawberries & Cream Pudding Push-up Pops

Pudding:
1 small box instant vanilla pudding mix
1 C milk
6 oz plain or vanilla yogurt

Strawberry puree:
12 medium strawberries, washed and quartered (can use frozen)
2 T sugar

In a blender combine pudding mix, yogurt, and milk. In a food processor or chopper, puree strawberries and sugar until smooth. Layer or swirl pudding mix and strawberry mixture in push-up pops or popsicle molds and freeze until solid.



I got my push-up pops here. If you only want a dozen or so, you can find them here.
Push-ups were one of my favorite desserts as a kid. How about you?
