There’s a reason why some flavour combos are so popular – because they just work and taste good! As a kid I loved dunking biscuits in creamy milk – I wasn’t allowed to do it too often, except at my Nans house. Generally, it was an Anzac Bikkie straight out of the oven that I lovingly dunked until the last part dissolved between my fingers (I’m one for trying to make good things last as long as possible). Anyhow, I’m sure this is how the popular ice-cream flavour ‘cookies and cream’ was born?
So as I took a batch of Anzacs out of the oven yesterday, I had an urge to road test my new stainless steel Onyx popsicle moulds and these Anzac Cream Popsicles were born. My kids are bursting at the seams to tuck into one, hope you enjoy this Anzac come nostalgic inspired treat.
Take a look at the variations (below the main recipe) for suggestions to alter the recipe to suit many specific dietary requirements.
