Let your ice cream sit on the counter for a few minutes so it is super soft and easy to scoop into your molds.
Step 2
Layer candies and spoonfuls of ice cream in your mold.
Step 3
Top with your popsicle stick.
Step 4
Let your pops freeze fully before pulling them out. If your mold is difficult to remove the ice cream from, lightly dip it into warm water to loosen your pops.
