Strawberry Shortcake Yogurt Pops

If you're looking for the ultimate healthy summer treat, these Strawberry Shortcake Yogurt Pops are hit all the notes! Inspired by the nostalgic strawberry shortcake ice cream bars we all grew up loving, these homemade yogurt pops deliver the same creamy strawberry flavor and crunchy cookie bits, but with wholesome ingredients and a protein-packed twist!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup thick greek or coconut yogurt  *I like vanilla
  • 1/4 cup cashew butter
  • 1 scoop of your favorite protein powder  *optional, but adds flavor & sweetness!
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup or honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup chopped strawberries
  • 1/2 cup crumbled Simple Mills Sweet Thins *or graham crackers!
  • 1 1/4 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil *optional, if needed to thin the chocolate

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients, besides the strawberries and cookies, until well combined and no lumps remain. Then fold in the chopped strawberries and crumbled cookies.
  • Use an ice cream scoop or large cookie scoop to scoop the mixture into circles on a parchment-lined baking sheet. You don't have to add popsicle sticks, but I like to add them! I simply stick one in the side of each and use a spoon to kind of spread the yogurt mixture over it to ensure it's covered.
  • Place the tray in the freezer for 2-3 hours until COMPLETELY firm.
  • Once firm, add the chocolate to a bowl. Use the double boiler method to melt it or melt it in the microwave. You can heat it in 30 second increments, stirring well between each one, until smooth.
  • Quickly dip or drizzle (see video) each pop into the chocolate & return to the baking sheet. I like to top each of mine with a little extra crumbled cookies. Return to the freezer for 15 minutes until the chocolate is totally hardened before moving to an air-tight container.
  • Store in freezer for up to two months! These are best if you leave them out at room temp for 5 minutes or so prior to eating!
