Homemade Pudding Pops – Day 7 of 30 Days of Healthy Homemade Summer Treats

30 Days of Healthy Homemade Summer Treats

I loved pudding pops as a kids. Chocolate, of course. While these are probably the least healthy suggestion I’ll give during this entire 30 days, they’re also a lot of fun and you can make them healthier with some additions.

Ingredients

1 3.9 oz (small) package pudding mix
2 cups milk
1/2 cup frozen whipped topping

Make pudding according to package directions. Allow mix to cool if using a cooked pudding. Mix in whipped topping. Pour into popsicle molds.

You can add fresh fruit to make this healthier. Real whipped cream rather than whipped topping is another option. You can also be more ambitious than I am and make your own pudding. This will let you have more control over all of the ingredients. There’s a good recipe at Rodale for chocolate pudding. I haven’t tried it, but I imagine you could use avocado chocolate mousse rather than chocolate pudding to make these healthier.

You can also have fun and use more than one flavor of pudding. There are some really fun ideas at Our Best Bites.
