BLUEBERRY CREAM POPSICLES

These naturally purple pops are made with a combination of simmered blueberries puréed into an easy no-churn ice cream base. You can substitute yogurt or crème fraîche for the sour cream; either will give the popsicles a subtle tang. You can use fresh or frozen berries. (Frozen berries can be thawed and used as directed in the method below. Or use them straight from the freezer, but add 2 to 4 minutes to the cook time.) The number of pops this recipe makes depends on the size and shape of the molds used. The base can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours if you need to freeze in batches; just give the mixture a stir before using.

Time 20m

Yield About 10 popsicles

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups/290 grams fresh or frozen blueberries
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 cup/120 milliliters sweetened condensed milk
1 cup/240 milliliters heavy cream
1/4 cup/60 milliliters sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In a medium pot, toss the blueberries, lemon juice, sugar and salt to combine. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries burst and the mixture becomes juicy, 4 to 5 minutes. (Add 2 to 4 minutes of cook time if you're using frozen, unthawed berries.
  • Transfer to the bowl of a food processor or blender and cool for 10 minutes. Purée the mixture until relatively smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the sweetened condensed milk and blend until combined, 20 to 30 seconds. Scrape the bowl well.
  • Add the heavy cream and process until the mixture is well combined and thickens slightly, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add the sour cream and vanilla and blend until fully incorporated, 30 seconds to 1 minute. If necessary, transfer the mixture to a large container with a spout, such as a 4-cup/1-liter liquid measuring cup. Divide the mixture between the popsicle molds, filling each just under the rim of the cavity of the mold. Gently press a popsicle stick into the center of each cavity and freeze until firm, at least 8 hours.
  • To unmold, gently run warm water over the base of the molds. They should easily release. Keep frozen until ready to serve.

Yield 4 popsicles

Number Of Ingredients 6

Handful of fresh blueberries
Four slices of fresh mango
Dash of lemon extract
Dash of vanilla extract
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Put all ingredients into blender, blend until smooth. Pour into popsicle molds, freeze for 24 hours. Note: To remove popsicles from molds, run hot water over molds for about 30 seconds. Popsicles slide right out.

Tips:

  • Use ripe blueberries: The riper the blueberries, the sweeter and more flavorful your popsicles will be.
  • Freeze the blueberries before using: This will help them retain their shape and prevent them from bleeding into the cream mixture.
  • Use full-fat coconut milk: This will give your popsicles a richer, creamier texture.
  • Sweeten the cream mixture to your taste: You can use honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Use popsicle molds with lids: This will help prevent the popsicles from getting freezer burn.
  • Freeze the popsicles for at least 4 hours before serving: This will ensure that they are fully frozen and solid.
