Frozen Peanutty Pops Recipes

Steps:

• Put 4 ounces chocolate in a medium bowl. Bring 1/2 cup heavy cream to a simmer in a small saucepan; pour over the chocolate and let sit 5 minutes. Add the vanilla and salt and whisk until smooth; set aside to cool to room temperature.
• Combine the remaining 1 cup heavy cream, the confectioners' sugar and peanut butter in a large bowl. Beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes. Fold the peanut butter whipped cream into the cooled chocolate mixture in three batches until just incorporated but still airy. Freeze until the mixture is firm enough to scoop, about 30 minutes.
• Lightly coat a 1 1/2-inch ice cream scoop or tablespoon with cooking spray. Scoop balls of the frozen mousse onto a parchment-lined baking sheet (about 1 heaping tablespoon per ball). Gently press a lollipop stick halfway into each ball. Freeze until firm, at least 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, combine the remaining 8 ounces chocolate and the coconut oil in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until the chocolate is melted and smooth; set aside to cool.
• Put the peanuts in a small bowl. Loosen the mousse balls from the baking sheet with a small offset spatula. One at a time, dip the balls into the melted chocolate, letting the excess drip back into the bowl. Return to the baking sheet and sprinkle with the peanuts while the chocolate is still wet. Return to the freezer until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Put six 3-to 4-ounce ice pop molds in the freezer for 30 minutes.
• Combine the strawberries and 1 tablespoon each coconut cream and honey in a blender. Puree until smooth. Pour into a liquid measuring cup and set aside. Rinse out the blender.
• Combine coconut milk, 1 tablespoon each coconut cream and lime juice in the blender. Puree until smooth.
• Evenly divide strawberry puree between the frozen pop molds. Carefully layer the coconut milk over the strawberry puree. Freeze for 30 minutes. Rinse out the blender.
• When you are ready to complete the frozen pops, combine the blueberries and the remaining 1 tablespoon each coconut cream, honey and lime juice in the blender. Puree until smooth (see Cook's Note).
• Remove the frozen pop molds from the freezer and fill with the blueberry puree, and insert the frozen pop mold stick.
• Freeze until set, at least 4 hours up to overnight. Let sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before unmolding and serving.

Steps:

• Blend milk and pudding mix in a medium bowl with a mixer at medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute.
• Add peanut butter, banana and vanilla; mix well.
• Spoon peanut butter mixture into 8 plastic ice pop molds or 8 (5oz) wax-coated paper cups.
• If using pape cups, insert wooden craft sticks into the center of each cup; freeze until firm, about 2 hours.
• ENJOY!

Steps:

• Peel the bananas, cut into three sections, about 2 inches long.
• Poke the stick well into the banana.
• Place on a sheet and into the freezer for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight.
• Melt the peanut butter and wax over boiling water. A small 1-cup pyrex measuring cup hung over the side of the pot of water works well, it's narrow enough to have the peanut butter deep enough for dipping.
• Remove your bananas from the freezer, and have your toppings ready in individual plates or bowls. One at a time, dip your banana into the peanut butter and turn it to coat. Lift it out and allow excess to drip and the coating to harden just a little.
• Roll it in your topping of choice and lay on a sheet lined with waxed paper.
• Once all are dipped and coated, you can place them back in the freezer until ready to serve. Remove from freezer 5 to 10 minutes before, just so they are soft enough to eat.

Steps:

• In medium bowl, with wire whisk, blend all ingredients.
• Spoon pudding into 4-oz. wax coated paper cups or muffin pan lined with cupcake liners.
• Place plastic spoons or popsicle sticks in center of each and freeze 4 hours or until firm.
• To serve, peel off paper cups or cupcake liners.

Steps:

• Several hours or day bdfore serving prepare fruit purees: Place bananas, kiwifruit, and fresh strawberries in freezer until partially frozen and firm.
• (If using frozen strawberries, allow to thaw slightly until just softened.) Pour orqnge juice into glass dish or pie plate; freeze until almost solid.
• In food processor with chopping blade or blender, combine 2 banana halves, 1 tbls.
• corn syrup, and the orange juice; process until mixture is smooth and pureed.
• Divide between two 3-ounce metal timbale molds, two 5-ounce paper cups, or any 3-ounce popsicle molds.
• Puree kiwifruit with 1 banana half and 1 tbls.
• corn syrup; divide mixture between 2 molds or cups.
• Puree strawberries with remaining banana and corn syrup; divide between 2 molds or cups.
• Place all fruit-filled molds in freezer.
• After 45 minutes, insert popsicle sticks in center of pops.
• Freeze pops several hours or overnight until completely frozen.
• To serve, remove pops from molds by quickly dipping molds into hot water; then, holding stick, pull pop out of mold.
• If using paper cups, paper can be peeled off.
• Enjoy!
