Dole Whip is a delightful and refreshing frozen treat, famous for its creamy texture and tropical flavor, particularly pineapple. It’s a great dessert for hot days or a fun treat to enjoy anytime. Here’s a simple recipe to make Dole Whip at home!
Ingredients
2 cups frozen pineapple chunks
1/2 cup coconut milk (or any milk of your choice)
1 tablespoon sugar (adjust to taste)
1 teaspoon lime juice (optional, for extra flavor)
Pinch of salt
Instructions
Step 1: Blend the Ingredients
Combine Ingredients: In a blender or food processor, add the frozen pineapple chunks, coconut milk, sugar, lime juice (if using), and a pinch of salt.
Blend: Blend until smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides to ensure everything is blended evenly. If the mixture is too thick, add a little more coconut milk to help it blend.
Step 2: Adjust the Consistency
Check Texture: The consistency should be thick and creamy, similar to soft-serve ice cream. If it’s too thin, add more frozen pineapple. If it’s too thick, add a bit more coconut milk.
Step 3: Serve
Scoop: Spoon the Dole Whip into bowls or cones.
Garnish: You can top it with fresh pineapple pieces or a cherry for a fun presentation.
Step 4: Enjoy
Serve immediately for the best texture, and enjoy your homemade Dole Whip!
Tips
Variations: While pineapple is the classic flavor, you can experiment with other fruits like mango or strawberry for different versions.
Storage: If you have leftovers, you can freeze the Dole Whip for later. Let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping to soften it up.
Dairy-Free Option: This recipe is naturally dairy-free if you use coconut milk. You can also use almond milk or oat milk for different flavors.
Dole Whip is a delicious, tropical treat that’s perfect for any occasion. Enjoy your refreshing dessert!
