These taste like the inside of a strawberry cheesecake, minus the crust and minus most of the
sugar and fat. The cream cheese and yogurt combo sets up rich and tangy, and the swirled strawberry
puree gives every bite a burst of real fruit.
They're the popsicle I make when it's hot out and I want something that feels more like dessert than
a plain fruit pop. Six of these in the freezer means there's always one ready to grab.
A creamy cheesecake base swirled with real strawberry puree, frozen on a stick, minus the crust and minus most of the sugar and fat.

Ingredients
Scale
Scaled from the original recipe. Unnumbered amounts (a pinch, a splash) don’t change, and nutrition stays per serving.
Instructions
Puree the strawberries with the 1 tablespoon of sweetener in a blender until smooth. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth, then whisk in the Greek yogurt, remaining sweetener, vanilla, and salt until fully combined, this is your cheesecake layer.
Spoon the cheesecake mixture and strawberry puree into popsicle molds in alternating spoonfuls.
Run a butter knife or skewer through each mold a couple of times to swirl the two layers together, don't overmix, you want visible ribbons.
Insert popsicle sticks and freeze for at least 6 hours, or until completely solid.
Run the outside of the molds under warm water for a few seconds to release the popsicles.
