I love recipes that can turn into other recipes…like a chameleon recipe. In today’s post I’ve included two separate printable recipes that can be used with one another or separated to be used in other ways. My go-to Key Lime Curd and Frozen Yogurt Popsicle recipes come together to create these EPIC Key Lime Pie Fro-Yo Pops.
The curd is great piped into cupcakes with a meringue frosting, and the fro-yo pops can be easily adapted to feature your favorite fruit. Save these to your summer Pinterest board and sign up for email notifications so you can be alerted when more summer recipes are posted!

Key Lime Pie Fro-Yo Pops
Recipe Type: Dessert

Prep time:
Total time:
Serves: 6-8 popsicles
Ingredients
- 2 cups plain, unsweetened Greek yogurt
- 1 cup lime curd, homemade or store bought (OR other fruit puree of your choice)
- 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
- popsicle stick and mold
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, thoroughly combine CHILLED lime curd and Greek yogurt. Taste the mixture to see if it’s flavored to your liking, adding more lime curd if you wish.
- Pour equal amounts of mixture into your popsicle molds and insert sticks. Chill in the freezer for at least 4 hours or overnight. If you have trouble removing the popsicles from the molds you can dip them in a bit of warm water to loosen them up.
- Once they’re removed sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs and serve or keep in the freezer for future popsicle needs.
Notes
Yield will vary depending on the type of mold you are using. If you don’t have a mold, you can use small mouthwash cups instead.
