Popsicle Update

I'm pleased to report that the popsicles turned out great! They released from the molds without much effort. Aiden is enjoying one right now!

Making Homeade Popsicles

Summer is here and I have fond memories of eating popsicles as a child. I bought popsicle molds at "The Christmas Tree Store" last Saturday. Aiden and I have made apple juice popsicles several times in the past week. This evening, we decided to make popsicles with orange Kool-Aid that I got for free several months ago. We started by mixing up the Kool-Aid in my favorite Pampered Chef quick stir pitcher. The packet called for 1 cup of sugar, but we reduced the sugar to 1/2 cup.

Next, we filled the molds with the Kool-Aid.

Finally, we put the lids on the molds and placed them into the freezer. They will be ready to eat in about four hours. Aiden loves helping me in the kitchen and I enjoy his company.
