Ingredient Checklist

Instructions Checklist
  • Using a food processor, puree blackberries until smooth. Remove from food processor bowl and set aside; rinse bowl. Add the three remaining ingredients. Cover and process, adding water as needed, until a soft-serve ice cream texture is reached.

  • Layer the blackberry mixture and peanut butter mixture in popsicle molds or small disposable paper cups, swirling as desired. Insert popsicle sticks** and freeze at least 4 hours or until frozen solid.

  • Popsicles can be stored, tightly covered, in freezer for up to 1 month.

Tips

*Do not select items that contain the ingredient xylitol. Xylitol is a sweetener that is sometimes found in peanut butter and yogurt products. It can be very toxic to pets, even in small amounts.

**Instead of popsicle sticks, try inserting medium-sized dog bone-shaped treats halfway into the mixture and freezing for a fun, edible handle.

Treats should make up no more than 10 percent of a dog's daily calorie intake.
