Cookies & Crème Pudding Pops


Cookies & Crème Pudding Pops (adapted from Kraft Foods; Servings: 9-10, Total Time: 4-5 Hours)

Ingredients
·         1 pkg. (3.9 oz.) instant sugar-free chocolate pudding mix
·         2 cups skim milk
·         6 Oreo cookies
·         ½ cup thawed low-fat or sugar-free Cool Whip whipped topping

Directions
1.      Whisk together the pudding mix and milk in a large bowl until smooth (about 2 minutes).
2.      Crush cookies and add to the pudding.
3.      Add Cool Whip to pudding.  Stir until blended.
4.      Spoon into 9-10 (3 oz.) paper or plastic cups.  Insert wooden popsicle stick into each for a handle.  Freeze 4-5 hours or until firm.

Husband and wife approved!  This is a tasty, cold treat for a hot day.  Be careful, though, when it starts to melt the chocolate gets all over your hands (not necessarily a terrible thing!).  I love that this can be made fairly healthy while keeping the chocolaty taste.  A nice way to get in that chocolate craving that comes each day!  I think that this would also be tasty with other flavors of pudding – vanilla, white chocolate, cheesecake…there’s a lot of possibilities here.  You could also add your favorite cookie.  I like when recipes are so versatile!
