MOUNDS CAKE

This cake is really good and rich!  Would be a good one to make when taking a meal and keep half and give the other half away.  Abagail didn't like all the coconut (maybe less next time).  She gave it a 5, Jackson gave it an 8, Scott a 9 and me a 9.  I think it would be fun next time to try with dark chocolate.

SHERBET

Now that you know the little secret , you too can look forward to year long sherbet treats any time you feel like it. You don’t have to stop at peach…. try blueberry, strawberry, pineapple, even mixed berries! This stuff is so good — like, magically good and the flavor possibilities are endless.

2 Ingredient Sherbet

• 16 ounces of frozen fruit
• 1 -14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk

Add fruit and milk to food processor or blender and combine until creamy. Ta-da! Sherbet

Serve immediately as soft-serve or freeze for an ice cream like consistency. I love my Tovolo Ice Cream Tub, no freezer burn – yay!! freeze for at least 3-4 hours to harden. Scoop onto a cone or into a bowl and enjoy!!
