I first saw this recipe here… but have been waiting to find figs that had a nice red interior before making them. Totally worth the wait… these are spectacular, when I first made them I didn’t quite have enough sour cream so supplemented the required amount with yogurt, now I’m not sure I would make it any different.
Fig Popsicles
1 1/2 c milk
1/2 c sugar
1 vanilla bean
1 1/2 c sour cream (or 1/2 c sour cream + 1 cup yogurt)
5 figs thickly sliced
Add the milk and sugar to a small saucepan and gently heat until sugar is dissolved. Scrape in the vanilla beans seeds, sour cream (+yogurt) and whisk until smooth. Remove and cool in fridge for about an hour.
Pour about 2 inches into bottom of popsicle mold and freeze until almost set, about an hour. Insert sticks and sliced figs evenly into molds, fill with remaining mixture. Freeze until set. ENJOY!
