How To Make Dole Pineapple Whip
- Add the Ingredients:
- In a high-speed blender, combine the pineapple juice, frozen pineapple chunks, and vanilla ice cream.
- Blend:
- Cover the blender and process on medium speed for about 1 ½ to 2 ½ minutes, until the mixture is thick and smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add more pineapple juice, one tablespoon at a time, until you achieve the desired consistency.
- To Serve:
- Immediately scoop the pineapple whip into a cup or bowl. For a more professional presentation, transfer the mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Close the end of the bag and freeze for about 30 minutes to firm up but not harden. Once ready, trim off the end of the piping bag and pipe the whip into your desired serving dish.
Notes
- Recipe Yield: About 2 cups
- Serving Size: About ½ cup
Using Coconut Milk: If you prefer a dairy-free version, substitute the ice cream with ¼ to ⅓ cup of unsweetened canned coconut milk or coconut cream. Adjust the consistency with additional pineapple juice as needed.
Freezing: Store any leftover pineapple whip in an airtight container or keep it in the piping bag for up to 2 weeks. Before serving, defrost for 20 to 30 minutes to make it easier to scoop or pipe. For convenience, you can freeze individual portions in disposable cups. Cover them if you are not planning to enjoy them within a day.
Description and Tips
Tips:
- Blender: Using a high-speed blender will help achieve a smooth and creamy texture. If your blender struggles with the frozen pineapple chunks, allow them to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before blending.
- Consistency: If the whip is too thick, add a little more pineapple juice. If it’s too thin, add more frozen pineapple chunks.
- Serving: For a firmer texture, let the pineapple whip sit in the freezer for 30 minutes before serving. This will make it easier to pipe into swirls.
- Customization: Feel free to experiment with other fruit juices or frozen fruits to create your own unique whip flavors.
Enjoy this Dole Pineapple Whip on a hot day or as a light dessert after a meal. Its bright, tropical flavor and creamy texture make it a refreshing treat that’s sure to please everyone!
