Roasted strawberries 'n' cream popsicles
Strawberries and cream are simply delicious. Roasted strawberries in balsamic vinegar topped with cream give you a little extra richness. And in this heat why not put them on a stick and freeze them? Whether you're serving these as an after dinner treat at a dinner party or for that naughty mid-afternoon snack, these popsicles are delightful
