Peach Popsicles


The snow melts and we hit 50 so that warranted popsicle weather somehow. We made our own, and I can't see us ever buying them again!

Place 3 peaches in a medium size bowl and cover with boiling water. After about 30 seconds remove them and dip them into cold water. At this point the skins should slide right off. Peel and remove the pits and chop into pieces.

Place the peaches along with 1 1/4 cups orange juice and 2 tablespoons powdered sugar into the blender and blend until smooth.

Into popsicle molds or disposable cups, place a spoonful of fruit cocktail. Pour the popsicle mix over until about half full and then add another spoonful of fruit. Finish filling the cups. Add popsicle sticks and freeze overnight!

A quote from the chef himself - "They are very good and we made them on Tuesday. This is 5 stars!"
Cost was about $2.00 for 4 regular size popsicles and 3 plastic cup oversized popsicles. Not bad. When peaches are in season this will be very cheap to make! The chef seems to like them better than store bought too!
