When I was planning the menu for my last cooking class, I wanted to showcase a simple, healthy dessert that would compliment the spicy Thai peanut sauce entree we were making.
Introducing: Coconut Mango Sorbet!
You don’t need an ice cream machine to make it– just a blender or a food processor. It’s super refreshing and was a huge hit with my class. It’s easy to make ahead or in bulk, so you can keep dessert or a healthy snack frozen for the kiddos! There’s a hint of turmeric in this sorbet which accents the beautiful yellow mango color– and adds a really exotic flavor profile. Plus, it’s packed with antioxidants. DEEEEEELISH!
