It’s only the beginning of summer and so far, it has been HOT! A great way to stay cool and beat the heat with a summer treat is with these creamy, 3-ingredient mango creamsicles. Unlike the store-bought creamsicles, these are sweet without any added sugar, and provide a little protein from the milk. This recipe also takes no time at all to come together. It’s blended up into a silky smooth texture, popped into popsicles molds and then set in the freezer. Make them after your morning smoothie and enjoy them in the afternoon heat.

Serving: 8-10

Ingredients:

1 cup fresh or frozen mango
3/4 cup milk (or milk alternative)
1/2 cup 35% heavy cream (or coconut cream)

Directions:
