Very Berry Ice Pops Food

VERY BERRY ICE POPS

Steps:

• In a blender, combine blackberries and 1/2 cup each sugar and cream and blend until smooth, scraping down sides as necessary. Pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl, pressing on solids (you should have about 2 cups puree); discard solids. Rinse out blender. Add raspberries and 1/2 cup each sugar and cream; blend until smooth. Pour through a clean sieve into another bowl, pressing on solids (you should have about 2 cups puree); discard solids.
• Fill four 3-ounce ice-pop molds one-third full with blackberry puree and fill four molds one-third full with raspberry puree. Freeze until just frozen, about 1 hour. Pour another layer of purees, alternating them, over frozen layers to fill molds two-thirds full and insert ice-pop sticks. When second layer is just frozen, about 45 minutes, top with alternate purees and freeze until solid, 6 hours (or up to 2 weeks).

BERRY ICE CREAM POPS

Steps:

• Place ice pop molds on a small baking sheet that will fit in the freezer (and make room in the freezer, if necessary).
• In a medium bowl, toss the berries with the lemon juice and sugar. Let macerate stirring occasionally, until the fruit becomes juicy and the sugar is fully dissolved, about 10 minutes.
• In another medium bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, vanilla, and salt to medium peaks. Whisk in the sour cream, then gently fold in the sweetened condensed milk. Mix just until completely combined; do not overmix.
• Use a potato masher (or large fork) to gently mash the macerated berries. Gently fold in about 1 cup of the cream mixture. Pour the remaining cream mixture into the prepared ice pop molds, filling each about halfway.
• Top with the berry mixture, filling the molds the rest of the way. Insert ice pop sticks into the center of each ice pop and freeze until frozen, at least 6 hours. Run the molds briefly under warm water, then pull on the sticks to unmold the ice pops.
