One of my favorite treats as a kid was Jell-o Pudding Pops. The wonderful Bill Cosby was their spokesperson for a lot of years. Check out this "vintage" commercial!
So when I saw this recipe for Pudding Pops, I decided we needed to try it ASAP. In fact, it justified a second trip to the store when I got it in my mind to make it right now! It is page 243 in the cookbook.
The ingredients are simple:
The instructions are just as simple. You just blend until smooth.
Then you put them into popsicle molds. The recipe says it makes 8 pops, but I think that my molds are little on the small side. So it made 10 of mine...plus a little extra that I was forced to eat straight from the blender.
My kids were crazy excited for these to finally be frozen enough to eat. They all loved them. My husband thought they were just okay, but he doesn't like peanut butter banana sandwiches either. (I know! Can you imagine?!)
Wanna hear the best part? I did the math (based on 10 pops) and these little guys only have 77 calories. I'd like to try them again with skim milk and reduced fat peanut butter to see if they're still as yummy. If they are, that makes them even better for you. I love a healthy snack!
