It’s easy to prepare in just 10 minutes, perfect for a quick dessert or snack that’s both flavorful and lighter than traditional ice cream.
Ingredients
Fruit and Liquid Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen strawberries
- 1/2 cup pineapple juice
- 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk (or any milk of your choice)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Sweetener
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (adjust to taste)
Instructions
- Blend the base ingredients: In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen strawberries, pineapple juice, unsweetened coconut milk, and lemon juice. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, ensuring no large chunks remain.
- Adjust the sweetness: Taste the blended mixture and add powdered sugar as needed to achieve your preferred sweetness level. Blend again briefly to fully incorporate the sugar and maintain smooth texture.
- Serve or chill: Serve the Strawberry Dole Whip immediately for a soft-serve style treat, or transfer it to a container and freeze for about 30 minutes if you prefer a firmer, scoopable texture similar to ice cream.
Notes
- For a dairy-free or vegan option, use unsweetened coconut milk or any plant-based milk.
- Adjust the amount of powdered sugar depending on the sweetness of your fruit and personal preference.
- To get a creamier texture without a blender, you can pulse in a food processor, but blending is best.
- Optional: Garnish with fresh strawberries or a sprig of mint for presentation.
- This recipe can be doubled easily for larger gatherings.
