Paletas de Nuez

I had a recipe for pecan paletas in my first cookbook, My Sweet Mexico, but I’m including a different version here because this flavor is one of my favorites. These ice pops are a bit sweeter and creamier than the ones in My Sweet Mexico because they’re made with sweetened condensed milk and half-and-half. Both versions are really delicious, and I’m still debating which I like best. It’s hard to find pecan extract here, but if you come across some, I recommend adding 1 teaspoon along with the vanilla for an even deeper nutty flavor.
