This month’s Recipe Redux is frozen desserts….yummmy! I know we could all use some tasty frozen desserts considering the abnormally high temperatures this summer. I love making use of my Kitchen Aid ice cream maker, so I decided to attempt coconut ice cream again (my first attempt was no bueno). I lightened up a coconut ice cream recipe I found on FoodNetwork.com and added a strawberry puree…because you gotta have some fruit with your dessert! The ice cream is creamy and smooth, you’d never know it was a low-fat version. Be sure to check out the other Recipe Redux links for frozen desserts at the bottom of this post. And in the words of Conan O’Brien, “Keep cool my babies!”.
