Summer Dessert to Die For

Christine has declared her intention to make ice cream for her kids this summer … and what about the adults, I say!  It reminded me of the stunning Frozen Yoghurt that can be whipped up in an instant when you just need something sweet and rewarding (and not chocolate!) on a summer’s evening.

Quick Raspberry and Nectarine Frozen Yoghurt

3 large, ripe nectarines
20 g frozen raspberries
finely grated zest of one lime
1/3 cup caster sugar
1 cup thick plain yoghurt, well chilled

Chop nectarines into small pieces and freeze in single layer in the freezer (this is the only pre-prepared part of the dessert, or just keep a stash in the freezer for just this purpose).

Put the frozen fruit, lime zest and sugar in a food processor and blend until fruit is roughly chopped.  Add the yoghurt and process until the mixture is smooth.

Spoon into glasses and serve immediately with fresh fruit.

I’ve used this with all manner of different frozen fruits – it never fails to please!
