Cookie Dough Popsicle

I think every food blogger on the internet has made these popsicles this summer in honor of The Cookie Dough Lover's Cookbook coming out. And for good reason – they take about 2 minutes to make, use ingredients you probably are taking out of your pantry now, and taste AMAZING.

Seriously, I have no clue why I didn’t know that frozen milk, a pinch of salt, vanilla, and a bit of brown sugar would resemble cookie dough so closely. But I’ll be enjoying this combo as DC continues to tease me with autumn. If we’re going to magically spring back into summer weather, you better believe I’ll be eating a popsicle.

And possibly be staring at my new boots resentfully.

 

Cookie Dough Popsicle

Recipe from Girlichef

I bought these rocket ship popsicle molds from Bed Bath & Beyond this past summer for about $10. It really doesn’t matter what mold you use (though your popsicles won’t be as awesome as mine) or even if you’re using an official popsicle mold (nothing wrong with the Dixie cup + popsicle stick model) because as long as you freeze these pops solid, you’ll be enjoying a pretty tasty treat.

Ingredients

2½ c. milk

⅔ c. light brown sugar, packed

Couple pinches salt

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

1/4 cup + 1 teaspoon mini chocolate chips

Equipment

Microwave safe bowl, popsicle molds or paper cups and popsicles sticks to make your own mold

Instructions

Pour milk in the microwave-safe bowl and heat for about 1 minute or until warm to the touch. Stir in brown sugar and salt until dissolved. Stir in vanilla.

Place ½ tablespoon of chocolate chips in the bottom of your popsicle molds. Fill to the top with milk mixture. Insert sticks and freeze until solid (took my full freezer about six hours).

Makes about 10 popsicles
