Frozen Coffee Pumpkin Pop; Mom’s Morning Pick Me Up

by

Now that summer has officially arrived in the Haas house, my kids want to get up at 7am and  play. 

*shudder*

They do not want to eat. They do not want to wake up slowly and watch some morning cartoons. They do not want to lounge in pj’s till noon.

 Damn I miss lounging in pg’s till noon.

They want to run into the backyard like banshees and get into every possible thing before I have so much as poured cream in my coffee. So yesterday I created a “Mommy’s Special Frozen Coffee Recipe“, complete with dollar store ingredients so as not to break the bank, and grab-able for those early morning backyard days. Which is pretty much every day in my world.

Looks like this…

but tastes like this…

Frozen Coffee Pumpkin Pop; Mom's Pick Me Up

Frozen Coffee Pumpkin Pop

Need

  • 1/2 cup can of pumpkin
  • 1/4th cup Sweet Condensed Milk
  • 1 Chai Coffee K cup (or you can use your favorite flavor if you prefer) (make 1 1/3 cup coffee, if you are on a Keurig that is the second to last setting)

1) Mix together, pour into your molds, set overnight and voila! This recipe makes 4 homemade ice pops that have prerequisite caffeine filled coffee, so keep them away from your kids unless you want them to skip naps.

They are delicious.

    This looks really delicious! I love this idea s a picker upper mid day maybe! It would keep me from grabbing a can of Dr Pepper for sure!

    I love pumpkin and I think this would really work for me. Your pictures are beautiful. Makes me want one right now.

    Nice life hack with this coffee-pop! Those chai k-cups are to die for. I’ve made the mistake of forgoing the coffee altogether when rushed in the morning, and it is ALWAYS a bad idea. I turn into a monster! This is a much better solution!

    Sounds yummy and like a great way to beat the heat. I love chai tea and mixing it with pumpkin is a great idea.

    How clever! I really need to try this. Nothing can stand in the way of me and my coffee in the morning. It is a must have for me.

    Definitely passing this along to my husband. He is not only the coffee drinker in our house, he also has summers off.
