Zesty lemon iced tea cheesecake pops

Ingredients (8)

  • 350 ml Zesty Lemon Iced Tea
  • 250g light cream cheese
  • 2 tbsp caster sugar
  • 1 tsp lemon rind, finely grated
  • 50g sour cream
  • 2 tbsp thickened cream
  • 5-6 lemon cream biscuits (see notes)
  • 20g butter, melted

Method

  • Step 1 Reserve 1/2 cup (125ml) tea. Pour the remaining tea between eight 100 ml popsicle moulds. Freeze for 3 hours or until firm.
  • Step 2 Combine cream cheese, sugar, rind, sour cream, cream and reserved iced tea in a food processor. Process until smooth.
  • Step 3 Remove ice-block moulds from the freezer. Divide the cheesecake mixture between the popsicle moulds, leaving 1cm gap at the top. Secure popsicle sticks in place. Return to freezer for at least 1 hour.
  • Step 4 Place the biscuits in a food processor and process until finely chopped. Add the butter and process to just combine. Gently press biscuit mixture into the top of each popsicle. Freeze overnight until completely firm.
  • Step 5 Run a warm cloth or a little warm water over the outside of the moulds. Loosen gently with the stick and remove pops. Serve.
