ALMOND FUDGE POPS

Almond Fudge Pops image

These rich-tasting frozen treats are oh-so-creamy, kids and grown-ups love 'em! It's hard to eat just one. They're simple to prepare and great to have on hand. Sometimes I'll substitute pecans for the almonds in the recipe. -Debbie Pion, Lakeland, Florida
