DIRECTIONS
- Creamsicles
- 1. In a small saucepan over medium heat whisk together the coconut cream, honey, and vanilla.
- 2. Whisk until simmering and smooth (the cashew butter should be melted and incorporated).

- 4. Whisk to combine and remove from heat.
- 5. Let cool slightly and then pour into your popsicle molds.
- 6. Freeze for 1 hour and then remove and swirl in the jam. (About 1 tbsp per bar swirled with a knife)
- 7. Freeze for another 3-6 hours, drizzle with chocolate and enjoy!
- Strawberry Jam
- 1. Add all ingredients to a small saucepan and bring the juices to a boil, stirring often.
- 2. Reduce to a rapid simmer and let cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. The strawberries should have disintegrated into a jam-like consistency.
- 3. Transfer to a glass jar and let cool before refrigerating.
