WHERE IN THIE WORLD IS THIS? QUIZ #1

While Terry and I were in Disney World this year, we took some pictures of some obscure things and thought we'd give y'all a quiz about where these items were located.  So, here we go.  The persons guessing all five will get a Disney goodie mailed to them. Please respond to my email so that your answers won't be seen by everyone.  (P.S. I'm working on the costs, etc. for GG2013.)

Homemade Dole Whips

Yeah, you heard right. We know how to make Dole Whips! Dole has the recipe on their website and I found a blog (via Pinterest) that also explains the process.

Mitchell and I made them on Labor Day and documented the process so you all could make them too!

First step: Your ingredients
  • 2 cans (20 oz. each) crushed pineapple
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 Tbsp lime juice
  • 1/3 cup of sugar
  • 1-1/2 cups of whipping cream
  • Pineapple juice

Step two: Drain your crushed pineapple, saving 2 Tbsp of the juice for later. Put the crushed pineapple, lemon juice, lime juice, sugar and saved 2 Tbsp of pineapple juice in a food processor or blender and blend until it is very smooth.

Step three: Once the mixture is blended, put it in a gallon ziploc and freeze it for 1-1/2 hour until it makes a slushy.
Don't judge our salmon!
Step four: While you're waiting for the slushy to form, whip your whipping cream.

Step five: Add the pineapple slushy and gently mix it all together and put it back in the freezer to freeze into ice cream! This will probably take over night.


Step six: Create your Dole Whip! Scoop out some ice cream and pour pineapple juice over it!


Step seven: ENJOY your Dole Whip!
