Strawberry Pineapple Popsicles

Yield: makes 10 popsicles

Ingredients:

• 2 cups pineapple chunks
• 3 cups sliced strawberry
• 1/3 c + 1/2 cup pineapple juice

Directions:

• In a blender, or food processor, puree pineapple chunks with 1/3 cup of pineapple juice. Transfer pineapple puree into a liquid measuring cup with a spout and set aside.
• 
  Wash and clean out blender. Puree strawberries with remaining 1/2 cup pineapple juice. Transfer strawberry puree into another liquid measuring cup with spout.
• 
  Pour strawberry puree into molds, filling mold half way. Next, slowly pour pineapple puree into mold. Since the pineapple puree is more dense than the strawberry, it will cause that swirling/marble effect.
• 
  Place a layer of foil over the popsicle molds, followed by the popsicle mold cover. Insert wooden sticks into the mold and then remove popsicle mold cover, leaving only the foil. In my experience, I have had difficultly removing the plastic mold cover, so I prefer to use foil. Place mold in freezer for at least 3 hours until the popsicles are solid.

To remove popsicles from mold, submerge mold into room temperature water for 60-90 seconds. Remove from water and pull popsicles out. Enjoy immediately!
