Description
Bright, retro Orange Creamsicles made with sweet orange Jell-O and cold heavy cream, frozen into creamy popsicles that the whole family will love.
Ingredients
- 1 (3 oz) box orange Jell-O (or 2 × 0.3 oz sugar-free orange Jell-O packets)
- 1 cup boiling water
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream, cold from the fridge
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- Popsicle molds and sticks
Instructions
- Bring water to a rolling boil and pour 1 cup into a heatproof 4-cup measuring cup.
- Sprinkle the orange Jell-O powder into the boiling water and stir until completely dissolved — no granules should remain.
- Stir in 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly.
- Pour in the 2 cups cold heavy whipping cream and fold gently with a rubber spatula until combined; stop when the mixture reaches about 3 cups in volume.
- Immediately pour the mixture into popsicle molds. Insert sticks if your mold requires them.
- Freeze flat for about 6 hours or until solid. For best results, freeze overnight.
- To unmold, run warm (not hot) water over the outside of the mold for a few seconds until the popsicles slip free.
Notes
For best texture, use heavy cream straight from the fridge. Avoid over-whipping to keep a smooth texture.
