Bomb Pop Cheesecake Cups: Fun, portable, and perfect sized mini cheesecake cups in the flavors of a Bomb Pop popsicle: Blue Raspberry, Lime, and Cherry.

This post and recipe was created for #SummerDessertWeek! I was sent samples by some of the sponsor companies but as always opinions, bad grammar, and overuse of emojis are 100% mine.
In this post I used Sweets and Treats fun Patriotic Star Sprinkles. I received them for free but was not monetarily compensated for this post. They have lots of cute sprinkles and cupcake liners you should go and check out.

It’s day four of #SummerDessertWeek and I am paying tribute to the Ice Cream Man.
I really miss the days of having to run down the ice cream man.
It’s a great concept to force children to get a little exercise. 😛
We kind of need them for adults. 🙂
I could eat a whole lot more ice cream if I had to run down the street for it…especially my street because it’s super long. 😀

I remember the sheer excitement in summer time when you would hear the music.
Running out of your house and trying to figure out where it was in your neighborhood and if it was coming closer or further away from your house.
If you think about it not only did you get exercise to chase it down but you learned directional life skills as well.
The hardest part for me was picking which treat to get.
I lived in Phoenix so there was not the option of getting more than one and saving it for later as it would melt before you got home.
I rotated usually between Creamsicle, Drumsticks, and Bomb Pops.
Super hot days always called for Bomb Pops.

They were such a fun shape and I loved all the colors.
I remember when I found out what the three flavors were…I had only ever guessed cherry correct.
But the other two were blue raspberry and lime.
Now they come in a variety of flavors but I’m nostalgic for the originals.
Instead of just making a cheesecake I decided to make cheesecake cups.
They work so much better for potlucks as they are portable.
No one wants to have to carry a plate and a fork around to eat cheesecake especially when you can just pop one of these in your mouth.
These are not only true to color but flavor.
There is a blue raspberry layer, a lime layer, and a cherry layer.
All topped with whipped cream and sprinkles.
