Bananas Foster Popsicles

Last week we kicked off summer with Ice Pop week and I shared 5 different ice pop recipes. There was also a giveaway where you were asked what flavour ice pop you would like to make. There were so many fantastic suggestions, many of which I hope to try over the next few months, but one from Wendy stood out to me. It was for a Bananas Foster popsicle. My husband makes a pretty good Bananas Foster, served over ice cream, so I knew that Bananas Foster Popsicles would be a hit at our house. I was right, the kids loved them! The brown sugary sauteed bananas and the pecans are a perfect addition to the creamy ice pops.

To find out who won the giveaway, keep reading, I’ll share the winner after the recipe. 😉

• 1 tablespoon brandy (optional)
• 1 1/4 cup milk
