Kiwifruit Peeled Frozen Fruit Pops

Kiwifruit Peeled Frozen Fruit Pops

Ingredients:
2 large kiwifruit, peeled
¼ teaspoon grated lime peel
1 cup frozen pitted sweet cherries, thawed
⅛ teaspoon almond extract
¾ cup cubed fresh or canned and drained pineapple
⅛ teaspoon grated orange peel

Directions:
In a mini blender, puree the kiwi until smooth. Transfer ¾ cup of the mixture to a glass measuring cup
(discard any excess or reserve for another use), add the lime peel, and stir to mix. Pour into 6 molds (4
ounces each) and freeze for at least 1 hour or until almost solid. The puree will not fill the molds.
Rinse out the blender canister. Puree the cherries and almond extract until smooth. Pour over the kiwi
layer. The cherry puree will not top off the mold. Insert a wooden fruit pop stick into each mold.
Freeze for 45 minutes or until almost solid.
Rinse out the blender canister. Blend the pineapple and orange peel until smooth. Pour over the cherry
layer to come nearly to the top of the molds. Freeze pops for several hours or until solid. Before
serving, dip the molds briefly in warm water to loosen the pops.

Warm Chocolate-Almond Dip
When I was testing the desserts in this book with family and friends, this simple-to-make dip
was a surprise favorite. The chocolate dip has the perfect amount of almond flavor. Pair the
dip with slices of your favorite fruits.
