Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Lime zest
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, and granulated sugar until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Add the vanilla extract, lime juice, lime zest, and a pinch of salt to the mixture, whisking until evenly combined.
Pour the mixture evenly into popsicle molds, leaving a little room at the top to allow for expansion as they freeze.
Insert popsicle sticks into the molds, ensuring they stand upright.
Place the molds in the freezer and freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until the creamsicles are completely solid.
To unmold, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds to loosen the popsicles, then gently pull out the Vanilla Lime Creamsicles.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
