Summertime is the time for cold treats like ice cream and popsicles. My granddaughter told me about these Oreo popsicles--I think she might have seen them on Tik Tok--so we decided to try making them. You'll need individual packages of Oreo cookies--all we could find was a six pack but I think it would work better with a smaller two or four pack because these were HUGE. The individual packages are often sold by the candy at the cashier's desk. We used low fat milk but I imagine whole milk or even cream would be divine! We also couldn't find real popsicle sticks and had to settle for this thinner version. They were still fun for us to make together and if there's a little one in your life, I think they would enjoy it, too. Obviously these would work with any variety of Oreo or you could substitute a different cookie altogether.
Ingredients:
Individual packs of Oreo cookies
Milk
Popsicle sticks
Without opening the package, use a mallet, rolling pin or other heavy object to crush the Oreos so they are in small pieces.
Snip the top off the package and stand in a glass or other container that will hold the package upright.
Carefully pour milk into the package until it is nearly full.
Add popsicle sticks and freeze until solid. Enjoy on a hot day!

Would make a neat thing to make with kiddos. I'd have to make it richer than just using milk though. :)

I see this would be a big hit!
ReplyDeleteBut how do you keep from eating all the cookies right away before making the pops?
You don't lol. You buy the big box of 18 packs of individual packets. That's all I could find when we went to the store so we had both cookies and popsicles!
DeleteWho doesn't love a recipe with a hammer? Thanks, Peg! Sending this on to the grandboys immediately.
