Lemon-Avocado Sherbet

 



Ingredients:

1 large avocado, halved, seeded, peeled, and cut up


1 cup half-and-half or light cream


⅔ cup powdered sugar


½ teaspoon finely shredded lemon peel


⅓ cup lemon juice


Directions:

In a blender combine avocado, half-and-half, powdered sugar, finely shredded lemon peel, and lemon juice. Cover and blend until smooth. Pour avocado mixture into a 2-quart square baking dish. Cover and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.


To serve, let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes. Cut into squares and divide among serving bowls. If desired, garnish with lemon peel strips and/or mint leaves.


As you can see from the photo above Florida Avocado's are HUGE! I picked up two ( on sale) and wanted to try this recipe.

We had the coldest Christmas ( a record cold in Florida) and it's in the 80's now. Good time to give this one a try.
