Tips for the Best Cookies and Cream Popsicles

Use Real Cream

The heavy cream creates a rich and creamy texture that feels more like ice cream.

Crush the Oreos Two Ways

Use some larger chunks for texture and some fine crumbs for flavor throughout the popsicle.

Don’t Overfill

Leave a little room at the top for expansion during freezing.

Freeze Overnight

For the best texture, allow the popsicles to freeze completely before serving.

Variations

Double Oreo Popsicles

Add extra crushed Oreos throughout the mixture.

Chocolate Cookies and Cream Popsicles

Add 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup to the cream mixture.

Peanut Butter Cookies and Cream Popsicles

Swirl in melted peanut butter before freezing.

Cookies and Cream Cheesecake Popsicles

Mix in 4 ounces softened cream cheese for a cheesecake-inspired version.

Jennie’s Thoughts

There is something about homemade popsicles that instantly feels like summer. I love that these are simple enough to make on a whim but taste like something you’d buy from an ice cream shop.

The combination of creamy vanilla base and crunchy Oreo pieces makes every bite taste like cookies and cream ice cream on a stick. I usually keep a batch in the freezer all summer long because they’re perfect for hot afternoons when you need something cold and refreshing.

Plus, they’re a lot cheaper than buying specialty ice cream bars at the store.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I Use Just Milk?

You can, but the popsicles will freeze harder. Adding heavy cream creates a much creamier texture.

Can I Use Different Cookies?

Absolutely. Golden Oreos, chocolate sandwich cookies, or even chocolate chip cookies work well.

How Long Do They Last?

Store in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Can I Make Them Dairy-Free?

Yes. Substitute coconut milk or your favorite dairy-free milk and cream alternatives.
