Ingredients
Cooking Instructions
| 1 | pint raspberries |
| 1/2 | cup of sugar |
| 1-1/4 | cups of water |
| 1/2 | cup of cream (heavy or light) |
| 1 | tbsp. lemon juice |
| 1 | cup of vanilla yogurt |
| 8 | (5-oz.) waxy paper cups |
| 8 | Popsicle sticks |
Cooking Instructions
| Step 1 | In a blender, puree 1 pint of the raspberries with the sugar and water. |
| Step 2 | Then use a jelly bag or sieve to strain out the seeds (this should yield about 2 cups of pulp). |
| Step 3 | Transfer 2/3 cup of the raspberry puree into a separate container, add the cream, and whisk well to mix. Meanwhile, have your child stir the lemon juice into the rest of the raspberry puree. |
| Step 4 | Now you should have two containers of raspberry sauce—one that's deep red and another that's creamy pink. |
| Step 5 | Chill both sauces. |
| Step 6 | In a bowl, stir together the vanilla yogurt and the remaining raspberries (another good job for kids). |
| Step 7 | Pour the mixture into the paper cups until they are about half full. |
| Step 8 | Set the cups in an 8- x 8-inch pan (for ease in transferring them in and out of the freezer). |
| Step 9 | Cover each cup with aluminum foil and poke a Popsicle stick straight through the center of the foil and into the mixture. |
| Step 10 | Freeze until set (about 2 hours). |
| Step 11 | Remove the foil and pour a layer of the deep red puree on top of the frozen yogurt. |
| Step 12 | Freeze again until solid (about 2 hours). |
| Step 13 | Finally, pour a layer of the raspberry cream mixture into each cup and freeze until solid. |
| Step 14 | To serve, peel the cups away from the creamsicles. |
