~ raw, vegan, gluten-free, nut-free ~
Creamsicles! Oh, those were the days. School was out for the summer and that meant it was time to visit great-grandma! I could hardly wait to get there… as I bounced along in the Greyhound bus, visions danced in my head; mud pies! bike riding! swimming!
My girlfriend Bonita!! Worms and freckles! Summer rains! After the storms would pass through, there were rivers of water racing down the gutters in the streets. This meant Amie Sue had to get to work!
Off came the shoes, long gone were the socks, and with a running leap, I would race across the green grass and jump into the raging road rivers. There I stood braving the ankle-deep water. haha I would run up and down the streets, shuffling my feet causing the water to spray all over. Seeing a car coming from a distance, I would pause, anxiously awaiting for it to pass by and spray me with rainwater that had collected in the pot-holes.
I stood up straight, shoulders back, my face lifted toward the warm sun, I was in position! Wooosh! Score! One drenched Amie Sue who was rejoicing as water dripped down her face. Then my attention would return to the water flowing in the street and would continue my mission, for this was serious playtime.
I bet you are wondering just what the heck all of that has to do with creamsicles, aren’t you? OK, so maybe I got a bit sidetracked as I was visiting memory lane but to end the story, my day would finish back at grandmas. Soaking wet, muddy, hair matted to my face and a smile spread from ear to ear… great-grandma would come outside and greet me with a homemade creamsicle on a stick. After my special treat, it was time for a hose-down before I could come into the house to take a bath. Aaah, those were the days.
I hope you enjoy the simplicity of this recipe. Please comment below and have a blessed day, amie sue

Oh my! These look sooooo good! Can’t wait to try them! Thanks!
God bless,
Grace
Yummmmmmmmmmy! These look dangerously delicious! I’m thinking coconut rum….using the rum extract! Maybe throw some raisins in there! :)
Jami,
Oh good-golly a person could go nuts with this as a base. But right now I can’t eat nuts or dried fruit… so I had to make it as simple as possible, yet still give some excitement to my taste buds. Poor Bob has heard me ramble off a hundred different concoctions lol The Cinnamon and Fennel is my favorite so far but I do love these. :)
This is a blessing an I am looking forward to trying this recipe and it is simple, thank you so much and continue
exploring new recipes. God bless you Amie
Morning Sharon, This is such a great, guilt free snack. Coconut oil is soooo good for a person and I am thoroughly enjoying it! Hugs, amie sue

Hello Amie Sue, Thank you for the trip down memory lane, I too use to run up and down the streets in the muddy water, and all those things that made childhood wonderful !!! :] This recipe is wonderful, easy and the melt in your mouth texture was great!! Took these on a platter with other things to a potluck!! They were a hit – thanks!!!!! Lyn
Your welcome Lyn :) I love this too. I go through phases where I make up a bunch of these bark recipes, use cute molds and keep them handy in the freezer for those snack-attacks. Darn snack-attacks. lol Blessings and joy, amie sue
Hello Amie-sue,
I just found your website last night, soooooo excited! You are truly a professional and wonderful to give out all of your fantastic and amazing recipes…why did you not put all of this in a book. Just one question: what kind of mold did you use for the orange creamsicle bark?
You are a God sent!
Thank you
Thank you Linda. :) So happy that you are enjoying my site. I give it my all.
I would love to do a cookbook one day so you just never know. In the meantime I share my recipe and techniques here so people can hopefully benefit from them and grow in health. :)
The mold I used was just one of the simple chocolate molds that you can pick up at craft or baking stores. Enjoy! amie sue
