These smooth and creamy Dole Whips will bring back memories of your favorite treat at Disney.
If you’ve ever been to Disneyland there’s a pretty good chance that you’ve had their famous Dole Whip. Making a stop at Tiki’s Juice Bar is one of the first stops of many when they walk through those magical gates. I love the smooth, creaminess of Dole Whips and could eat them everyday; unfortunately I live about 11 hours from Disneyland and even if I did live closer I couldn’t justify going to Disney every time this tropical craving struck.
So in true frugal fashion I scoured the internet (a.k.a. Pinterest) for recipes. To get the look of the Dole Whip I would need an ice cream maker; and I didn’t have that, so I knew making a true copy cat recipe was out of the question. But what I did have was my favorite kitchen appliance, my Blendtec! I also didn’t have a lot of time. Most recipes called for letting the whip sit for a few hours in the freezer, which you can do with this recipe too if you want more of a slush-y texture. We ate ours straight out of the blender, well we poured it in to glasses first, and they were perfect. Smooth, creamy and packed full of pineapple goodnes; just how I remember the original Dole Whip being. So if you have a craving for this Disney classic, don’t run to Disneyland (ok well if you can, do go to Disneyland and ride Pirates for me while you’re there), just head into your kitchen!

I imagine the first thing I’d make would be my morning smoothie, which I currently make in my old second-hand blender every morning. Beyond that? Soup, I think. Definitely frozen sweets–that Dole whip recipe looks tempting.
