The whole family will love these blueberry cheesecake popsicles! They’re just the snack to cool you down this summer!
How about a post workout popsicle? Following on how to create the perfect post workout shake I have a post workout popsicle that will provide you with all the protein and carbs you need to replenish after your workout. It’s refreshing, delicious and does not contain a speckle of processed protein powder.. 😉
During the summer I much prefer to workout indoors at the gym where it’s nice and cool but as soon as I step outside into the 40 degree Spanish heat I feel like I’m about to melt. I find solace just knowing that I have one of these popsicles waiting for me at home in the freezer.
These popsicles are extremely easy to whip up. If you can make a smoothie, you can make these!
How to make Blueberry Cheesecake Popsicles
In a blender add the cottage cheese, yogurt, milk and vanilla. Blend until smooth.
Pour ¾ cup /300 ml cups of the yogurt/cheese mixture into a separate container and set aside.
Add the blueberries, lemon juice and blueberry lavender syrup to the the remaining yogurt mixture. Pulse until smooth.
Pour the blueberry puree into the popsicle moulds, filling them to about 1/3 of the mould. Freeze until the mixture begins to set, about 30 minutes. Fill the rest of the mould with the yogurt/cheese mixture. Cover and insert the popsicle sticks. Freeze for 4 hours or overnight, until they are hard.
Where to buy popsicle molds?
I got my popsicle molds at IKEA but since it seems I’ll be making a lot of popsicles this summer I’m planning to buy these Zoku Pop Molds.
These popsicles aren’t only great post workout they’re an excellent snack for the whole family!

Cheesecake popsicles? I like the sound of that, what a unique way to indulge in a protein loaded treat.
Cottage cheese or cream cheese? The recipe at the bottom says cottage cheese, just want to clarify, thanks!
Hi Danielle, it’s cottage cheese. Thanks so much for bringing that to my attention. Hope you like them. 🙂
