Description
Disney’s legendary pineapple dole whip whisks guests into tropical paradise with its creamy, refreshing texture. Guests of all ages savor this iconic frozen treat that brings Walt Disney World magic to their taste buds.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (473 ml) frozen pineapple chunks
- ½ cup (118 ml) vanilla ice cream (or dairy-free alternative for vegan)
- ½ cup (118 ml) pineapple juice
- 12 tbsps (180 ml) sugar (optional, to taste)
Instructions
- Prep Ingredients: Gather frozen pineapple chunks, vanilla ice cream, pineapple juice, and optional sugar, ensuring all components are chilled and ready for blending.
- Blend Mixture: Combine ingredients in a high-powered blender, pulsing at maximum speed to create a smooth, creamy consistency, pausing intermittently to scrape down sides and eliminate potential lumps.
- Adjust Texture: Modify the mixture’s viscosity by adding extra pineapple juice if the blend appears too dense, achieving a soft-serve like smoothness.
- Prepare Serving: Choose your presentation method – either pipe the mixture using a star-tipped bag for classic Disney-style swirls or scoop into chilled serving dishes.
- Garnish and Present: If desired, embellish with fresh pineapple wedges or mint leaves, and serve immediately to preserve the dessert’s signature light, airy texture.
Notes
- Freeze Pineapple Precisely: Use completely frozen pineapple chunks for the smoothest, most authentic soft-serve texture without unnecessary ice crystals.
- Balance Liquid Carefully: Add pineapple juice gradually to control thickness, preventing a runny or overly dense mixture that compromises the signature creamy consistency.
- Chill Serving Vessels: Pre-chill glasses or bowls to keep the Dole Whip cold and prevent rapid melting, maintaining its signature soft-serve appearance.
- Master Piping Technique: Use a star-tipped piping bag with steady, circular motion to create classic Disney-style swirls, ensuring even distribution and professional presentation.
