Mint Oreo Pudding Pops

I adore baking sweet treats and apple pies, but this summer heat has got me dreading the use of an oven! To satisfy my sweet tooth without melting in the kitchen, I made these mint oreo pudding pops and loved how they turned out! The best part is that you can have the kiddos help make these. You can also add really any kind of candy or cookie you want! A vanilla pudding with Reese’s Pieces or a Strawberries and Cream pop… YUM!

What you will need:

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Rolling pin
  • Resealable plastic baggie
  • [amazon_textlink asin=’B0716RCW1Q’ text=’popsicle mold’ template=’ProductLink’ store=’Newmommasurvival’ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’39150ef4-6451-11e8-9ff7-49b316c96ce5′] (or small paper cups and wood popsicle sticks)
  • Whisk
  • Small spoon

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 package (3.0 oz) of Chocolate Pudding- we like the [amazon_textlink asin=’B01KJJRTQO’ text=’Jell-O Simply Good Pudding Mix’ template=’ProductLink’ store=’Newmommasurvival’ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’7ce3c312-6451-11e8-aa61-9d74f3dad014′]
  • 2 cups cold coconut milk (or milk of choice)
  • 3 [amazon_textlink asin=’B071F35LXY’ text=’Oreo cookies’ template=’ProductLink’ store=’Newmommasurvival’ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’8e6e93d7-6451-11e8-b502-4d5dc2a4be30′]- we used the seasonal 4th of July Fireworks flavor- they have little pop rocks in them!
  • 3-4 [amazon_textlink asin=’B0065MVDF8′ text=’Andes mints’ template=’ProductLink’ store=’Newmommasurvival’ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’9c671576-6451-11e8-9a6f-178326e4c822′]
  • 1/2 cup thawed whipped topping

1.

Empty the pudding packet and the 2 cups cold milk into the large bowl.

2.

Beat the coconut milk and pudding mix in the large bowl with a whisk for 2 minutes.

3.

Put the cookies and Andes mints in a resealable plastic baggie. (TIP: I recommend freezing the mints a bit before this step, they melt so quickly!) Let your kids crush the cookies with a rolling pin.

4.

Add the cookies and mints + the 1/2 cup whipped topping the bowl. Stir until well blended.

5.

Carefully spoon the pudding mixture into the molds. We had enough to make two molds that have 8 popsicles each.

6.

Freeze util firm. Ours took about 4 hours. Enjoy!  TIP: These are difficult to take out of the molds, so wait a minute or two and run some warm water on the bottom of the molds to wiggle the pops out.

    This looks delicious! I’m not really good at the kitchen, but the simple steps are totally easy to follow to make it on my own. Plus, it’s Ramadan for us Muslims, this sweet stuff is definitely a good choice to break the fast. Thank you for sharing. 🙂

    What a great idea to get the kids involved with cooking these delicious looking pops. Right now, my air conditioner is out in the kitchen area and I dread cooking in there right now as well, especially in the hot summer, so these pops would be perfect to cool my family down. Plus they look so easy to make – I want those pop molds ASAP. Pinning and thank you so much for sharing!

    This looks so delicious! I absolutely love that you went outside to make these. I never think to take the kitchen outside instead of being cooped up in the house! Fresh air and making yummy treats would make for the perfect afternoon. I’ll be pinning these to make the next sunshiny day!

I wish you could smell these garden roses and this I wish you could smell these garden roses and this eucalyptus 😍 
It's been a long time since I treated myself to some flowers, and they really do make me so happy. 

It was 61 degrees and sunny today, and I needed the warm fresh air. Theo has been having serious sleep issues where he's screaming for hours every night. He has still yet to sleep through the night, and now he's up for hours at a time, and there's nothing I can do to soothe him. We are all exhausted. And now the only time he naps is if we're in the car. Lord, give me strength 🙏
The chiropractor doesn't seem to be helping, and I've called 3 pediatricians to only hear they're all booked until mid to late March for an appointment. 
I've had a headache for 4 days now that is just relentless, making it hard to concentrate on anything. My hip is already killing me and I'm only 16 weeks pregnant 😩
It's been a rough several days. 
So fresh flowers and epsom salt baths and essential oils and tea have been life-giving.
Home education with a busy crazy toddler... oh, th Home education with a busy crazy toddler... oh, the struggle is real 😆 
He craves constant attention, needs a snack every 35 minutes, wants to climb on everything and everyone around him, and he cannot communicate his needs yet,  but has THE biggest emotions. 
My older son struggles with concentrating on his work anyways, so throw a loud toddler in the mix that just wants brother to play with him... it can feel chaotic. 

So we take lots of wiggle and play breaks and it really benefits us all. I get 10 min to clean up or kick my feet up. The boys get to spend quality time together, use their imaginations, run around, and get their wiggles out. 
And I'm trying to get better at setting up mess-free activities and busy work for Theo to keep him occupied for longer. 
It hit me today as I observed this absolutely adorable scene of them playing restaurant while I made lunch... 
If Liam was in school, Theo would only see him a few hours a day during the week and on weekends. They'd both be missing out on so much. 

I know that's "normal" for any family's that choose public school, and there's of course nothing wrong with that at all. I'm just glad we all get to spend our days together, even when they're difficult. 

This life we have chosen can be so draining. I am really starting to feel the exhaustion that comes along with pregnancy these days. But I see so many beautiful moments like this throughout the week, and I feel very blessed indeed that we get to do life this way.
Yesterday we visited @seaquestlynchburg and had su Yesterday we visited @seaquestlynchburg and had such an amazing time ! The highlights were the stingrays showing off and squirting water at us, and the birds eating out of Liam's hand. For Theodore, it was all just fascinating. Every animal got an "ooo" and "awww" and wide eyes and a pudgy little finger pointing at it or a little hand excitedly waving high. 
Then we spent some time at the little toddler play area in the mall where Theo hugged every kid there and had the biggest smile on his face the whole time. 
I would say this week's homeschool field trip was a success!
Next week we're checking out our local library, and the week after that, the children's museum.
It's always so fun to explore a new area. ☺️

I don't always get a few quiet moments to myself, I don't always get a few quiet moments to myself, but when I do, I make the most of it !
I put on a homemaker or homesteading podcast, light a candle, sip hot tea... 
It gives me time to slow down and take deep breaths, and relax a bit. (And I'll be honest, this time often also has a good snack involved or some dark chocolate I hid on the top shelf of the pantry 😆) 

I spent some time yesterday during nap time restocking some herbs in my new apothecary cabinet. I filled jars of nettle, peppermint, red raspberry leaf, and rosemary. These dark amber jars are on Amazon and pretty perfect for storing herbs ! 
I'm dreaming of what herbs I'll be drying from my garden to add to these shelves 🤩

I'm curious- if you use herbs in your home, what are your top 3 most used ?
S'mores, burning brush, snuggling up with a blanke S'mores, burning brush, snuggling up with a blanket, and admiring our new house on the hill. 

We've been busy setting up our new home, finding places for everything, and thrifting some furniture. Theo is already use to the new house and his new room. He loves the playroom in the basement and having a real bath tub! 
Liam had his first playdate on Friday, and we're planning out his lego table this week. Nate has been busy fixing things around the house and helping me hang art and things all over. 
 It feels good to be finding a new rythm again. To have a regular bath night, and cooking big meals we eat around the table my grandpa built. We're dreaming of the garden this Spring, what fencing we can put up for animals, what color to paint the house... 
and it just feels so so good to be in our own home again where we can do what we want and plan and dream for the future.
