Cookies and Coconut Milk Popsicles
Description
This recipe uses canned coconut milk shaken well and flavored with vanilla extract to create a smooth liquid base. Crushed Oreo cookies are folded into the coconut milk, providing both flavor and texture through cookie fragments dispersed throughout the popsicle mixture.
The popsicles are built in molds by layering some of the cookies and cream mixture, then placing a whole cookie in the center to act as a core. Filling the molds to the top and freezing solid produces icy treats balancing creamy and crunchy sensations.
These popsicles are convenient for summer desserts or casual snacks. They are easy to unmold by briefly immersing the molds in warm water and gently pulling out the frozen popsicles, which hold their shape around the embedded whole cookie.
Ingredients
- 14 ounce coconut milk you can also use coconut cream, can
- Oreo cookie approximately 15
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Shake the can of coconut milk well. Pour it into a small mixing bowl and add the vanilla.
- Take 6-8 cookies and crush them. You can do this by putting them in a small food processor, or into a baggie and then using a rolling pin to roll over it and crush the cookies. They don't have to be completely crushed, you can leave as much texture in as you like.
- Fold the crushed cookies into the coconut milk, don't mix too much, just fold.
- Spoon a small amount of the mixture into the bottom of 5 popsicle molds.
- Insert a whole cookie into each of the molds. Carefully insert a popsicle stick into the molds, the stick will fit right into the filling of the cookie and stand by itself.
- Fill the molds with the rest of the cookies and cream mixture.
- Freeze until solid. This will take several hours.
- To remove the popsicles, fill your sink with hot water, and immerse the mold up to, but not over the top lip and hold for 15 seconds. Remove from the water and then gently remove the popsicles.
- To store for later, wrap each popsicle well with waxed paper, and then put in freezer baggies.
