Dole Whip Recipe (Disney Copycat)
This Disney Dole Whip Recipe is a sweet, frosty fruit treat easily made at home when you can't get to the parks, and the perfect dessert to cool off on a hot summer day.
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 4 ounces pineapple juice
- 1 big scoop vanilla ice cream (about 3/4 cup)
- 2 cups frozen pineapple chunks
- 2 tablespoons sugar , optional but recommended
- splash of lemon juice
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Combine all the ingredients in a high-powered blender (in the order listed); blend until smooth and ultra creamy, pushing down the pineapple chunks if necessary, about 3 minutes.
- At this point you can pour into dessert cups. But I like to freeze the mixture for 30-40 minutes, then transfer to a piping bag with a 1M “star” tip (to get that iconic Dole Whip swirl.)
- Swirl into glasses.
- (To help the soft-serve hold its shape even longer, freeze the swirled whip another 20 minutes.)
Notes
Can I make this dairy free? Yep. The original dole whip served at the parks included ice cream, but is actually dairy free now. Just swap out the ice cream with 1/3 cup coconut milk to make this a dairy free, vegan treat.
Convert the Dole Whip into a Dole Whip Float! Simply fill a glass halfway with pineapple juice, followed by some Dole Whip, and top it off with a maraschino cherry.
Make it with different fruits. If you're not a pineapple lover, this can be made with pretty much any frozen fruit and its accompanying fruit juice, like strawberry, lemon, orange, raspberry, or mango.
