FUDGESICLES (and some questions for you)

With warm weather approaching and kids already out of school, it is time for kid friendly recipes. These fudgesicles are not only tasty, but they are inexpensive to make using every day ingredients from your pantry. If you do not have Popsicle molds, just use 3 ounce waxed paper (bathroom) cups and popsicle sticks.


In heavy bottom, medium size saucepan, mix:
3 cups milk
¼ cup cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon salt
½ cup corn syrup (light)
1 teaspoon vanilla

Bring to gentle boil on medium high and boil 1 minute (make sure you stir constantly). Remove from heat and add 1 cup of milk chocolate chips, stir to melt.

Pour into Popsicle molds (or 3 ounce waxed paper cups). Freeze overnight.
NOTE: About an hour or so after you put the paper cups into the freezer, insert a Popsicle stick in the center, and return to freezer.SEE VIDEO TUTORIAL >>
