VIETNAMESE COFFEE POPSICLES

It's summer, what could be better than a coffee popsicle?  

Vietnamese Coffee Popsicles Ingredients:

• 2 cups very strong French roast coffee, hot
• 1 – 14oz. can sweetened condensed milk, divided
• 3/4 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

1. Place 2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk in a bowl or measuring pitcher. Pour the hot coffee over the top and stir until blended. Allow the coffee to cool for a few minutes.
2. Carefully pour the Vietnamese coffee into 12 popsicle molds, 2/3 – 3/4 full. Place in the freezer and freeze until slushy, about 1- 2 hours.
3. Mix the heavy cream with 3 Tb. sweetened condensed milk and vanilla. Pull the Popsicle out of the freezer.
4. Pour 1-2 tablespoons of cream over the top of each pop and add a popsicle stick to the middle.
5. Return to the freezer and freeze until hard.
6. To remove from the molds: Fill the sink with warm water and dip the bottoms of the molds in the warm water for 30+ seconds. Pull the sticks straight up, don’t turn or twist them.
