Love easy summertime dessert recipes? I’ve got you covered with this super simple Strawberry Cobbler (seriously the best cobbler crust ever) and these Cream Cheese Lemon Bars (can’t stop, won’t stop eating them. don’t say I didn’t warn you).

I hate shopping. Wait, what?? Out of left field a bit? Wondering what shopping and creamy frozen pudding pops have to do with one another? Maybe nothing, or maybe everything. Just bear with me here.

The thing is, I don’t totally hate shopping. But maybe I’m a little bit weird about shopping? For instance, my favorite clothing item to shop for is shoes, and not because I’m a shoe fanatic, but because they require the least amount of undressing and redressing. And because I’m short, that makes my feet tiny, so I can slip right into the display shoe size. I can try on shoe after shoe after shoe in about two minutes.

So it probably goes without saying that people with big feet hate me.

Also, I prefer to shop alone because there is a wall I always hit where I’m just suddenly done shopping. Either at that store or for an item or for the day. Just, all of a sudden, I’ll be done. 

I’ve even been known to put everything back I was intending to purchase and leave the store because I simply didn’t care to be shopping anymore. My mother thinks this is crazy. 

What You’ll Need to Make These Creamy Popsicles 

• Half-n-half
• Milk 
• Vanilla
• Cookies ‘n cream instant pudding mix
• Oreos 

Here’s How You Make Pudding Pops

These homemade pudding pops are seriously SO easy! Here’s how you make them. 

1. Whisk together half-n-half, milk, vanilla, and pudding.
2. Stir in chopped Oreo cookies.
3. Pour mixture into popsicle molds.
4. Freeze for 2 hours or overnight.
5. Devour. 

When you’re ready to dive into your first Cookies n’ Cream Pudding Pop, just run the plastic mold under hot water for about 20 seconds to loosen the fudge pop from the mold. It should side right out with a little pressure applied to the bottom. 

Expert Tips and Customizations

Want to change these fudgesicles up a bit? Here are my favorite ideas: 

• Change up the kind of Oreo you use. I have used double stuf, fudge-covered, and Oreo thins. 
• You can also use the different flavors, like birthday cake, salted caramel, cinnamon, mint chocolate, chocolate cream, and mega stuf. It all depends on what your grocery store carries. 
• Add an ⅛ of a cup of chopped maraschino cherries to the mixture before freezing for a touch of cherries in your Cookies n’ Cream Pops. 
• You could also add bits of fresh mint or crushed peppermints to the liquid popsicle mixture. 
• I like to dip my popsicles in even more chocolate before eating. To do that, take the number of popsicles out of the freezer that you want to cover in chocolate. Add them to a plate or smaller dish that’s lined with wax paper, and pop back in the freezer while you warm up the chocolate. I like to do this in the microwave, a few seconds at a time, stirring in between, until the chocolate melts. Then you can either dip the frozen pops into the bowl, or spoon the chocolate over, or both. Cover half the Fudge Pop or dip the whole thing in, up to you. Any kind of chocolate will work. 
• Add sprinkles to the pudding mixture or sprinkle on top of melted chocolate if you’re dipping. 
• Use sugar-free pudding mix if you are watching your sugar intake, and cut the number of Oreos in half. 

I think you’ll find that sometimes my shopping oddities work in everyone’s favor, like how I am not sure how I ever lived without this popsicle recipe, and now I’m pretty sure you’ll wonder the same thing too!
