Raspberry-Cheesecake-Popsicles-1-sm

A perfect red and white Canada Day treat!

Ingredients:

  • 8 oz fresh raspberries (or blueberries/blackberries/cherries. Pick your fav! You can use frozen too but fresh is super tasty.)
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 4 oz low fat cream cheese
  • 3 tablespoons fat free milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar

Directions:

Over medium heat, cook raspberries and 1 tablespoon of water in a small saucepan for 10 minutes or until they are easily broken up with a wooden spoon.

Transfer mixture to a food processor (or bullet or blender) and puree until there are no lumps. Refrigerate raspberry puree about 30 minutes or until cool.

Then in food processor, puree cream cheese, milk, vanilla extract and powdered sugar until smooth.

In popsicle molds, layer raspberry puree and cream cheese mixture. Insert popsicle sticks and freeze for at least 2 hours. Enjoy!
