These strawberry cheesecake popsicles were inspired by a new yogurt flavor I discovered. Now, you must realize I eat yogurt like most people eat ice cream! You know the jumbo size cartons of yogurt at the grocery store that you think "Who could seriously eat that much yogurt?" Yep, that's me! So when I discovered Dannon Fit and Light's Greek Mousse yogurt I was ecstatic. (and no, this is not a sponsored post! I just love this yogurt). When my daughter tasted it she said, "Mmm...it tastes like cheesecake!" I had planned on making strawberries and cream pops, but switched gears and made these tasty strawberry cheesecake pops instead. They are tangy, sweet, and delicious-the perfect cheesecake on a stick!
