Yesterday was National Ice Cream Day and to celebrate I made these fudge fruit filled popsicles!
Gee, these babies are good! This was the first time that I have made homemade popsicles and, I really don’t know why I haven’t been. Can’t wait to make all the flavor combo’s that I can dream up or find recipes for:)
