Question 1

Can you make strawberry cheesecake popsicles without cream cheese?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Substitute thick full-fat Greek yogurt for part or all of the cream cheese. The texture will be lighter and slightly tangier but still creamy when frozen.

Question 2

Why did my strawberry cheesecake popsicles turn icy?

Accepted Answer

Too much water or not enough fat in the mixture causes icy texture. Use full-fat dairy and drain any excess liquid from the strawberries before blending.

Question 3

Can I use frozen strawberries instead of fresh?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Thaw them completely and drain the excess liquid before blending. Too much extra water is what causes icy popsicles.

Question 4

How long do strawberry cheesecake popsicles need to freeze?

Accepted Answer

At least 6 to 8 hours, though overnight is best. Removing them too early causes bending or cracking when you unmold them.

Question 5

Can I make strawberry cheesecake popsicles ahead of time?

Accepted Answer

Yes. These keep well in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Once unmolded, wrap them individually in parchment paper and store in an airtight freezer container.
