I have been on the look out for dairy free frozen desserts, because milk and I are no longer friends. I will miss many creamy dishes, but this failed friendship also gave me the impetus to find a mostly healthy and delicious replacement. How about starting with this fun frozen dessert!
Apricot Freeze
adapted from: The Marshmallow Fluff Cookbook
makes approximately 1 1/4 pints
my notes: a simple frozen fruit dessert, you could cut down on the amount of "fluff" for a richer apricot flavor and firmer texture. I used an ice cream maker, but you will also find a simple method at the end of the post to whisk and freeze.
1 16oz can apricot halves
1 c Marshmallow Fluff
1 T fresh squeezed lemon juice
Mash apricot halves with a potato masher, or puree in food processor for a smoother texture.
Place all ingredients into ice cream maker and process until resistance taxes the process. Freeze until firm.
Scoop into small balls and serve over a bed of fresh blueberries or other berries of choice.
You may also prepare this without using an ice cream machine: After mashing/puree the apricots, whisk into the fluff a little bit at a time, combining well. Stir in the lemon juice. Freeze until firm, scoop to serve.
And now, what are you sharing?

Good morning Melynda! Your freeze does look good, I love apricots and don't use them nearly enough. And I always have fluff in my cupboard. I've just linked up 3 recipes. I already have 2 for you for September (last night's meal), lol. Have a great day!
That looks so simple! Wow!
Almost forgot it's Cookbook Sunday. I linked up with my Watermelon Feta Salad.
It's amazing how many yummy things we can make with the marshmallow fluff. Great frozen treat, Melynda!

Yum, apricots. Sorry to hear about your dairy problems. Try soy milk, rice milk, or goat milk. All delicious.

You sure have found a lot of great recipes in that cookbook! One of my kids is lactose intolerant so I love finding a new substitute. Thanks for sharing your recipe with the hop and for being such a great co-host.
