Peaches and Coconut Cream Popsicles

Oh, the memories that popsicles bring to mind. I can remember hot summer days when Mama would let us run through the oscillating sprinkler. We just had the one so we would line up and run through one at a time, jumping the ice-cold well water and laughing the whole time. When she would finally make us stop before we ran the well dry, we would bask in the warm sun with our bright green, red, orange, or purple popsicles to dry off before we would start again.

All these years later, I still keep those same popsicles in my freezer for those hot days when I’m working in the yard. But I have also taken it a step further by making homemade popsicles. Popsicles are perfect for the whole family and make an excellent summertime dessert. You can find a wide variety of molds and even the quick-setting popsicle makers that I like for convenience.

Peaches are in season, so pick some up for these incredible Peaches and Coconut Cream Popsicles. They are amazing and quite addicting. I usually make a double batch because they do not last long!

Hi, I'm Amye. I started Not Just Sunday Dinner in 2011 after moving back to Georgia. I grew up in North Georgia and have lived in different parts of Georgia most of my life. After living in Florida for five years we moved back to Georgia in the summer of 2009. I've always loved Georgia, but now Florida holds a special place in my heart as well. I have been married for 26 years to a wonderful man, Greg. We have two children, Wes, 21 years old and a third year college student, and Savannah, 18 years old and a freshman in college. Greg and I have started "dating" again. Since the kids only want to see us when they need money

  1. So I had to try these!!!! Got some peaches at our local Sprouts market. They had to ripen a few days. I made these delicious Popsicles this past weekend and shared with my daughter Kim, her boyfriend John Paul, his son Alex and of course my grandson Colin. Everyone gave them thumbs up. I actually had enough peach purée to make a second batch. That will happen this coming weekend for Memorial Day treats. Yummy!!! Love all your recipes Amye!!!
