- Partially thaw the strawberries by leaving them at room temperature for 10 minutes or microwaving the unopened plastic pouch on high for 10 seconds.
- Place the partially frozen berries with their liquid in a blender. Add the milk and frozen yogurt. Cover and blend until smooth.
- Divide among twelve freezer pop molds or cups.
- Place the cups in a 9-x13-inch baking pan. Cover each cup with aluminum foil. Push a craft stick through the center of the foil to hold the stick in place while freezing.
- Freeze until firm, 3–4 hours.
Notes: Double Blueberry Milksicles: Substitute one (10 oz) package frozen blueberries in syrup for the frozen strawberry halves. Substitute blueberry frozen yogurt for the strawberry frozen yogurt. Creamy Vanilla Milksicles: Omit the frozen strawberry halves. Increase the milk to 1-1/2 cups. Substitute 1 cup vanilla frozen yogurt for the 1/2 cup strawberry frozen yogurt. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Feel free to swap out the whole milk in any of these recipes with lactose-free cow’s milk for a treat those with lactose intolerance can enjoy.
