Method

You can try and make this lolly recipe in 2 different ways...

Option 1: Pushed for time

• Whiz up all the ingredients in a blender.

• Pour into a mould, leaving a 1cm gap to the top of the mould.

• Place sticks and stick holders on top and freeze

Option 2: Spend a little bit more time to make the layered look

• In one container whiz the mango, 60g water and 2tsps sugarIn another container, whiz the yoghurt and the other 2tsps of the sugar

• Start pouring the mango mixture first (about a quarter of the mould).

• Carefully add the yoghurt mixture next, you want it to sit on top of the mango layer, so best to use a teaspoon to spoon in the yoghurt instead of pouring.

• Repeat until you have 4 layers to the top, leaving 1cm at the top for the liquid to expand as it freezes.

• Place sticks and stick holders on top and freeze!
