Chinola Cheesecake Popsicles

There's a recipe for a Passion Fruit Cheesecake on our blog that we absolutely love and can never have enough of. That was my inspiration for these Cheesecake Popsicles.

If you haven't tried our Chinola Cheesecake recipe, you absolutely should, as soon as the weather is fit for baking. In the meantime, do yourself a favor and go for the much easier, quicker, and summer-friendly cheesecake pops version.

I mean, it has chinola (passion fruit) in it. That's all the proof of quality you need right there.

About this recipe

OK, so technically this isn't a cheesecake, as should be readily obvious, but "Passion Fruit Cheesecake-Inspired-and-Flavored Popsicles" was quite the mouthful and --possibly-- more words than fit in the title box.

Yes, this does contain cream cheese, and no, you need not cook anything, just mix a few ingredients, pour into popsicle molds, and freeze. If you don't have, or don't like passion fruit, you can try it with other fruits (strawberries and blueberries come to mind), but chinola just goes great in this by adding the flavor and the bit of sourness I love in our original cheesecake recipe (did I mention you should try it?).

Buen provecho!

Tips and Notes

I suggest Graham or "María" crackers, but others may also work.

To make fresh chinola juice, liquefy the passion fruit pulp with a blender, and sieve to eliminate solids (some bits of seeds may remain, that's fine).

Consume the pops as soon as they freeze. If you leave them in the freezer for many hours, they will crystallize and the texture will no longer be so creamy.
