Next, put the shortbread cookies into a plastic bag and gently crush using a rolling pin. Blend the strawberries and sugar on high speed until it forms a puree-like consistency. Add the 2 cups of Cabot Plain Greek Yogurt and blend until fully incorporated. Scrape down the sides of blender with a spatula as needed. Pour the mixture into popsicle molds until they are 85% full. Sprinkle the crumbled shortbread cookies into each mold, then insert the sticks/base of the mold. Freeze for 8 hours or overnight. *To remove: Run the popsicle molds under warm water until the pops loosen, then remove.
