roasted berry and goats cheese popsicles.

sweet and tangy roasted berry goat cheese popsicles are the perfect icy treat to beat the summer heat.
we are smack dab in the middle of July. i pretty much boycott my oven. i avoid it at all costs and typically break out any no-bake desserts that i can think off. thinking; no- cake cheesecakes, ice-cream and popsicles. yes, popsicles are quite the treat when the humidity is through the rood.
the fun thing about popsicles is the way they are insanely easy to make. just put the ingredients in the moulds and then freeze. the waiting game is the hardest part of the entire process. sometimes i use fruit purees and other times i use greek yogurt as a bade for cream popsicles.
these roasted berry goats cheese popsicles are an unexpected combination of tangy and sweet. the goat cheese is sweetened with honey and a touch of vanilla and cardamom. then its swirled with a bit of roasted berries and frozen to create lovely, cream, fruity popsicles. these pops are the best kind of humidity cure



Ingredients:
1 cup milk
115g goats cheese
3tbsp honey
1/8 tsp cardamom
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
berries ( roasted and then pureed with a some icing sugar and water)

Method:

in a small saucepan set over medium/low heat, gently heat the milk, goats cheese, honey , cardamom and vanilla extract. whisk constantly until the milk mixtures warm and the goats cheese is completely melted into the milk. set aside to cool. spoon 1 tbsp of berry coulis into the bottom of each popsicle mould. pour in a bit of the milk mixture until moulds are halfway filled. drop 1 more tbsp of berries in each mould then top off with the mix mixture. freeze for usually 4-6 hours. gently un-mould the popsicles and enjoy
