This is my new obsession...
Cookies & Coconut Cream Pops... Mind. Blown. I was scoping Pinterest for some new blog ideas when I came across theviewfromthegreatisland.com & her recipe (you can click the link here for her website & original post). This recipe is pretty simple, makes 4-5 pops & therefore has become my new favourite summer snack. Also, it's completely vegan! Yes, Oreo cookies are 100% vegan.
Ingredients:
- 14 oz can coconut milk
- approx.15 Oreo cookies
- 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
What to do:
- Shake the can of coconut milk. Pour it into a small mixing bowl & add the vanilla.
- Take 6-8 cookies and crush them. I put them in a baggie & then used a rolling pin to crush the cookies.
- Add the crushed cookies into the coconut milk, don't mix too much, just lightly mix.
- Spoon a small amount of the mixture into the bottom of 5 popsicle molds.
- Insert a whole cookie into each of the molds. Carefully insert a popsicle stick into the molds, the stick will fit right into the filling of the cookie to stand by itself.
- Fill the molds with the rest of the cookies and cream mixture.
- Freeze until solid.
- To remove the popsicles, fill your sink with hot water, place the mold up to, but not over the top lip & hold for 15 seconds. Remove from the water & then gently remove the popsicles.
- To store for later, wrap each popsicle well with waxed paper & put in freezer baggies.
