Description
These Low Carb Strawberry Creamy Popsicles are a refreshing treat made with sugar-free gelatin and a creamy pudding base, topped with toasted pecans. They offer the perfect balance of sweet and crunchy, all while being low-carb.
Ingredients
1 package sugar-free strawberry gelatin (0.3 oz size box)
½ package sugar-free cheesecake pudding (1 oz size box)
½ cup boiling water (to dissolve gelatin)
1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
3 strawberries, diced
¼ cup raw pecans, chopped
2 teaspoons butter
Sprinkle of salt
Instructions
- Add the strawberry gelatin packet to a blender with ½ cup of boiling water. Blend on the lowest setting until the gelatin dissolves. Let it cool slightly.
- Add 1 cup of heavy cream to the blender and blend on high for 30 seconds until smooth.
- Spoon the mixture into 6 popsicle molds, filling halfway to two-thirds. Add diced strawberries evenly into each mold and freeze for 5 minutes to solidify slightly.
- In a small skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the chopped pecans and toast them until lightly browned, then sprinkle with a pinch of salt and set aside to cool.
- Mix the cheesecake pudding with ½ cup of heavy cream using a hand mixer until fluffy.
- Once the strawberry layer has set, spoon the pudding mixture over the top, ensuring it reaches the bottom layer. Add toasted pecans and insert popsicle sticks.
- Return molds to the freezer for 2+ hours until frozen solid.
- Once frozen, remove from molds and enjoy your low-carb strawberry creamy popsicles!
