Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh orange juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons cold water
- 1 tablespoon gelatin
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ teaspoon orange extract
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Pour the orange juice into a small saucepan set over high heat, and then whisk in the honey. Allow the juice and honey to boil until reduced to 1 cup. Meanwhile, measure the gelatin into a small bowl and pour cold water over it, allowing it to soften until it takes on the consistency of applesauce.
- Once the mixture of honey and orange juice forms a viscous syrup, and is reduced to 1 cup, whisk the gelatin into the syrup until it completely dissolves. Remove it from the heat and allow it to cool to room temperature.
- Pour the cooled orange syrup into a blender. Drop in the egg yolks, and then pour in the milk and orange and vanilla extracts. Blend until combined, about 20 to 30 seconds.
- Pour the creamsicle mixture into popsicle molds, leaving about ¼ inch headspace in each mold to allow for expansion. Allow the popsicles to freeze until solid, about 12 hours.
