Strawberry Yogurt Popsicles

1 - 4 serving size package strawberry flavored gelatin (jell-o)
1 - cup water
1/2 - cup sugar
3 - cups dannon plain yogurt
popsicle molds, small cups & popsicle sticks

In a medium sized pot heat bring water to a boil. Stir in the flavored gelatin. Stir until dissovled then add sugar. Keep stirring until all the gelatin and sugar is dissolved. This may take about 3-5 minutes. Add yogurt a cup at a time and using a wire whilk mix until smooth adding the additional 2 cups of plain yogurt. Pour into popsicle mold or cups and freeze for a minimum of 6 hours or overnight.

I did both molds and cups. I put all the little cups in a 9x13 inch glass plan so it was easier to place in the freezer. You can add foil over the whole dish then poke holes to add the sticks into the cups. Or it is easier to get the sticks to stand up in the cups if you let the yogurt pops freeze for about 30 minutes. Then insert the sticks, that way the yogurt has time to freeze and thicken up a bit. Then continur to freeze 6 hours or overnight.

*If you are concerned about the sugar in the recipe and want a sugar free version. You can use sugar free jello and omit the sugar. You might have to switch to flavored yogurt instead of plain to make up for the sweetness. Or you can just use the plain yogurt, regular jello and pureed fresh strawberries. This recipe can be adapted for any flavor peach jello with fresh peaches would be great.
