Yes, popsicles in the winter! Molly was sick yesterday with a sore throat , and was begging for popsicles. I really didn't want to run out to the store, so I dug out my popsicle molds and whipped up a batch of cherry popsicles. they are sooo good. Here's the recipe:
Popsicles
One small box of Jello (any flavor you like)
One packet of unsweetened kool-Aid drink mix (any flavor, just so it goes with the jello)
One cup sugar
2 cups of boiling water
2 cups cold water
Combine the jello, kool aid and sugar. Pour in the boiling water and stir till dissolved. Pour in the cold water, mix and pour into Popsicle molds, or if you don't have them, paper or plastic cups or even ice cube trays. For the cups or trays, set in the freezer for a hour or so, till they are partially set and stick in a Popsicle stick. Continue freezing. You can freeze these till they are hard, or till they are just slushy, like an Italian ice.
This recipe makes a lot of Popsicles.
I f you have some time, you can freeze different flavors/colors in layers, and make rocket pops or rainbow pops. yeah, i don't do this :) Well, once, on the 4th of July.
I have some other recipes for pudding pops, yogurt pops etc. I'll post them later.
