STRAWBERRY YOGURT POPSICLES

Steps:

• Make the simple syrup: In a small saucepan over medium heat, stir the sugar and water together. Bring to a boil and stir until sugar is dissolved. Chill until cold, or set the pot in a bowl of ice to cool. This will make about 3/4 cup syrup; you will not use it all for this recipe. The leftover syrup can be stored in the fridge for several weeks.
• Whisk the yogurt: In a bowl, whisk the yogurt to smooth out the lumps. (If you like sweetened yogurt, add honey or simple syrup to taste.)
• Freeze the popsicles: Freeze for 1 hour. Remove the mold from the freezer and insert the popsicle sticks, leaving about 2 inches of each stick above the mold. Return to the freezer for another 3 to 4 hours, or until frozen.
