Raise your hand if you love peanut butter! (can you see, we are raising our hands)
Raise your hand if you love winning prizes! (again, we are raising our hands)
We love peanut butter. It’s creamy and satisfying and reminds us of being a kid. Whether you put it in smoothie, use it as a dip for your apples, or eat it straight out of the jar, it just puts you in a good mood
Our good friends over at Peanut Butter & Company are having a peanut butter popsicle contest and asked us if we wanted to take part. Heck yes!
Here’s the deal for the Pin-a-Pop contest: a bunch of food bloggers (including us) have come up with recipes for popsicles featuring peanut butter. You guys get to vote for your favorite (ours, of course!) at their Facebook page or go to www.pinapopsweeps.com The blogger who gets the most votes wins and one lucky voter will also win – $500 and a year’s supply of peanut butter! How awesome is that?!
The contest runs July 13-31 and you can vote once per day. The more you vote (for us), the greater your chance to win. And please share with all of your friends on your social media pages.
Here’s the recipe. We hope you love it as much as we do 
Cherry-Almond and Peanut Butter Popsicles (makes 4 plus a little extra)
Cherry Layer:
- 2 cups pitted cherries (we used fresh but you can use frozen and thawed)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
Peanut butter layer:
- 1/2 cup White Chocolate Wonderful peanut butter
- 1/4 tsp. almond extract
- 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 1 tbs. chia seeds
- For the cherry layer: puree cherries with almond milk. Pour a small amount in the bottom of the popsicle mold (bottom third). Place in freezer 30 minutes. Add a layer of chia seeds.
- For the peanut butter layer: puree peanut butter, almond milk and almond extract. Pull the popsicle mold out of the freezer and add a layer on top of the chia seeds (next third). Place in freezer 30 minutes.
- Remove from freezer and add a small layer of chia seeds and then add the rest of the cherry mixture. Add popsicle sticks and freeze again for at least 2 hours.
Again, here are the contest rules: Go to the Peanut Butter & Company Facebook page or www.pinapopsweeps.com and vote for your favorite peanut butter popsicle (we hope you vote for us). The contest runs from July 13-31 and you can vote once per day. The popsicle that receives the most votes wins and one voter will win $500 and a year supply of peanut butter! Now, that’s cool (just like our popsicles)!
