My luncheon guests are always impressed when I serve this smooth, refreshing dessert garnished with candied edible flowers. The sherbet's lime flavor is so pleasant! Ingredients:
2 cups milk |
1-1/4 cups sugar |
1/3 cup lime juice |
1-1/2 teaspoons grated lime peel |
2 to 3 drops green food coloring, optional |
1 carton (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine milk and sugar. Cook and stir over medium heat until sugar is dissolved and mixture reaches 175°. Refrigerate until chilled.
2. Stir in the lime juice, peel and food coloring if desired. Freeze in an ice cream freezer according to manufacturer's directions.
3. Transfer sherbet to a 2-1/2-qt. freezer container. Allow to soften slightly; fold in whipped topping. Freeze for at least 4 hours before serving. Yield: 1-1/2 quarts.
