End of Summer Fun.....

A while back, I found this great recipe while surfing through the Kraft.com website... My Boys thought that would make a great treat for a party that they were planning for the Labor day weekend. WE thought we would share it here....

Watermelon Pops

What You Need!

1 pkg. (3 oz.) Strawberry Flavor Gelatin
3 Tbsp. miniature semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 pkg. (4 oz.) Cream Cheese, softened
1-1/2 cups thawed Whipped Topping
12-16 craft sticks or plastic spoons
12-16 (3-oz) paper cups


What You Need to DO!

MIX 1/3 cup sugar and lime gelatin mix in medium bowl. Add 1 cup boiling water; stir 2 min. until completely dissolved. Add enough ice to 1/2 cup cold water to measure 3/4 cup. Add to lime gelatin; stir until ice is completely melted. Refrigerate 25 min.
