Apparently we haven’t been making enough smoothies lately (see HERE), because when my 2-year-old asked for an ice pop today, we were completely out. So I pulled out my blender and made a special smoothie batch specifically to use for ice pop making.
I’d love to say I filled all of our ice pop molds with this chocolaty, peanut buttery goodness, but all four of us drank some of it in smoothie form too (and it was fantastic!). That said, I have 7 ice pops in the freezer, so that should hold us for at least couple of days – depending on how many kid guests we have in the meantime.
Be warned! These will disappear fast.
Here’s my Fruit-Sweetened Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Pop Recipe:
