It’s not always easy being Mom.
Can I stay up late?….NO
Can I stay home and play?…NO
Can I have cake for breakfast?…NO
Sometimes, I just want to say YES!
My kids seriously enjoy their sweets.
I know crazy huh.
They ask for dessert daily, and so I have been searching for ways to allow them to have their sweets and eat them too.
This is a treat that I can feel good about letting them eat.
Frozen Strawberry Cheesecake Pops:
~makes 4
4 paper cups
4 Popsicle sticks
4 tablespoons of graham cracker crumbs
16 ounces of Greek style vanilla yogurt
Diced strawberries (use as many as you like – I used 10 small berries)
Do:
place 1 tablespoon of crumbs in each cup (tap on counter to even out)
combine the yogurt with the berries (I mixed them well, so that the berry juice made the yogurt slightly pink)
scoop an even amount in each cup
add the sticks and freeze
With the graham crust, it really tastes like you are eating cheesecake with berries.
Enjoy!

What a great idea to say yes on!! These would be great to make up and keep on hand in the freezer for summer time!! Thank you for the great inspiration!!
Nice! First time at your blog ~ I’m coming from Sugar Bee Crafts

What yummy treats. If anything, tell your kids to ask their aunt or uncle. They’ll say yes; I know because I always say yes to my nieces. Ha!
Yum! These look delicious. Would you come by and share them on my new linky party, Dare to Share. I would love to try and make these.
