Make Your Own Jell- O Pudding Pops

Try these DIY Pudding Pops for a creamy, fudgy, refreshing treat! If you miss the Jell-O Pudding Pops from back-in-the-day, try this easy recipe, so you can start enjoying that delicious frozen treat again.

When I think of Jell-O Pudding Pops the first thing that pops in my head is Bill Cosby and his Jell-O Pudding Pop Commercials Remember those? I think it was around the early 80's. I can still remember the commercial.....

New Jell-O Pudding Pops, New Jell-O Pudding Pops! hey Mr. Cosby whats that? New Jell-O Pudding Pops, Frozen Pudding on a stick. They wont strike out with mom..... LOL The silly things that certain foods bring to mind. My kids had never heard of jello pudding pops.

I explained it to them and they said...... mom that's a fudgesicle! I told them no a fudgesicle is different more like a chocolate Popsicle. A pudding pop is more chocolaty and creamy like actual pudding. I have seen the new jello pudding pops on the market, but to me they are just not the same.

Kraft made the original Jell-O pudding pops not Popsicle. Also the original pudding pops were bigger. And finally Popsicle isn't even making them in the original shape as a Jell-O pudding pops. I don't even know why they were taken off the market in the first place. Do you?

I wanted to surprise the kids and let them help me make Homemade Jell-O Pudding Pops. They got so excited and couldn't wait to get started. I made this recipe two different ways one with instant pudding and this time with cook and serve pudding.

I found the best result was using the cook and serve, the pudding pops were so much creamier. The kids loved them especially in the little Dixie cup shapes. I have made this recipe three times because they love them so much.

I think the next recipe I want to try and recreate will be the Jell-O Gelatin Pops. If you remember pudding pops you have to remember the Gelatin pops. I sure do miss the old time favorites.

Is there a childhood favorite food or treat that you remember eating and cannot buy today? If so what is it? There is one I remember eating and I thought it was the bomb, Dunkin Donut Powdered Donut Cereal! LOL I could eat my weight in that stuff.

Here is Mommy's handsome boy enjoying the pudding pops he helped make. All he kept saying all day was "mom is it 5 minutes yet??? I told him you mean hours, he said ya I really really want one of the chocolate pops. LOL

Carson got to stick all the sticks in all by himself. Using the large box of pudding we got about 9 pops, it depends on how much pudding you add to each cup.

Add the cups to a 13 x 9 inch baking pan and then place the whole pan in the freezer. Freeze for at least 5 hours. Yummy Pudding Pops! They never last long in our house they are usually gone the next day. I cant wait to try my hand at the vanilla and banana pudding pops. We might even do a swirl of vanilla and chocolate.
