It’s Popsicle Time!

Who doesn’t like popsicles? As a kid I absolutely loved popsicles and freezies in the summertime! Banana popsicles were my fave, followed by fudgesicles (yummmmmmmm!)
As I strive to be more healthy we snagged a popsicle maker and have been having fun making our own popsicles. There are so many delicious options and the girls love helping me make them too!

This recipe is for the cheesecake lovers out there. We’ve used our Beaba Babycook Pro and the Zoku Quick pop popsicle maker! Hope you enjoy!
