Yummy! Use almond milk and add a drop of almond flavoring.

So easy and very tasty! I made them with a larger can of crushed pineapple (with juice), therefore I did not use the small amount of pineapple juice. I also substituted coconut cream pudding for the vanilla pudding called for in the recipe. Hopefully with practice getting the pops out of my new molds will become easy! This time it was a struggle, making the pops a bit ragged looking! Tagged under the 24-hour rule for Zaar Stars game ~ due Aug 14th, reviewed and reported to the game.

My grandkids loved these delicious frozen treats. The only change I made was to use instant coconut pudding mix. This is such a cool treat to make especially with these triple digit temps we are having this week. Made for Everyday is a Holiday tag, June, 2012.

Very much enjoyed making these tasty cold delights! Great now that the weather is getting warmer (or at least it's supposed to get warmer)! Liked the pineapple, & the bit of coconut flavor! We managed to share several with neighbor kids, but for the most part, the 2 of us are enjoying them all by ourselves! Very nice! [Made & reviewed in Newest Zaar recipe tag]
