Ingredients

1 cup digestive cookie crumbs
3 tbsp melted butter
2 cups pitted cherries divided
2 tbsp water
1/2 cup sugar divided
8- ounce cream cheese packet
1 cup milk

Instructions

In a small bowl, mix the cookie crumbs with the melted butter. Set aside.
Pit and slice the cherries in half.
To a blender, add pitted cherries, water, and 2 tbsp sugar. Blend until puréed. Remove and place in a large bowl.
To the blender, add cream cheese, milk, and the remaining 6 tbsp of sugar. Blend until smooth.
In a bowl, mix cream cheese mix with the cherry mix.
Pour the mixture into the popsicle molds, filling up the molds only 2/3rds of the way.
Top with cookie mixture and gently press into the mold. Leave about 1/2 inch of space at the top for the popsicles to expand. Close top and insert popsicle sticks.
Freeze for at least 8 hours (preferably overnight).
To serve, run the popsicle mold under warm water for 5-10 seconds to easily remove the popsicles.

Notes

. If you would like the popsicles to be more or less sweet, add or reduce the sugar, 1 tbsp at a time, to your liking.

· You can substitute digestive cookies for other types of cookies like graham crackers, gingersnaps, shortbread, etc.

· Cherries can be substituted for other fruits such as berries, peaches, mango, etc. Use ripe fruits for maximum sweetness and flavor.

· These pops melt pretty fast, so only remove them from the freezer when ready to serve.
