My favorite ice cream sundae is… you guessed it… vanilla bean ice cream with smashed raspberries and salted cashews. When I got the word that its #popsicleweek my brain immediately turned my favorite ice cream sundae into what is now my favorite popsicle, the Salted Cashew Raspberry Cream Pop!
This popsicle has berries, vanilla, chocolate and nuts!! Everything to satisfy your summertime cravings. We start with vanilla bean ice cream, if you need a good recipe try this one. Mix in sweetened raspberries, but not too sweetened, we still want a little tartness. Then pour into popsicle molds and freeze. Once set dip in smooth, rich chocolate and sprinkle with salted crunchy cashews and freeze again to set.
A few things to note: 1. When taking the popsicles out of mold you have to run them under warm water. Once you pull the pops from the mold lay on parchment and refreeze for 30 minutes. This will make certain they are frozen and firm before dipping in the chocolate. 2. The chocolate will start to soften the ice cream underneath immediately so moving quickly, dip, sprinkle with cashews, raspberries and lay in freezer to harden again.
Happy Popsicle Week Everyone! Check out all the other great popsicle works of art here.
Enjoy!

Notes
If dipping is intimidating you can easily drizzle the pops with melted chocolate and sprinkle with cashews and raspberries.
2. I work 4 pops at a time as chocolate will begin to cool. This way you can add more chocolate, melt as needed and begin again.
3. You will have chocolate left over.
These popsicles are absolutely marvelous, my dear! The hubs and I are obsessed with cashews! Legit, we can easily go through a big ole container of salted cashews in about 7 minutes if we aren’t careful.. it’s an expensive vice. Lol. Needless to say these pops are right up are alley!! Pinning to try! Cheers, friend!
