Instructions:

1. Prepare Strawberries:

   • If using whole frozen strawberries, allow them to thaw slightly for about 10 minutes to make blending easier.

2. Blend Ingredients:

   • In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine the frozen strawberries, coconut milk, honey or maple syrup (if using), lemon juice, and vanilla extract.

3. Blend Until Smooth:

   • Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender or food processor a few times to ensure everything is well mixed.

4. Adjust Consistency:

   • If the mixture is too thick, add a little more coconut milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.

5. Serve Immediately:

   • Serve the Strawberry Dole Whip immediately for a soft-serve texture. You can scoop it into bowls or pipe it using a piping bag with a star tip for a classic soft-serve look.

6. Optional Freezing:

   • If you prefer a firmer texture, transfer the Dole Whip to an airtight container and freeze for about 1-2 hours. Stir occasionally to maintain a smooth texture.

7. Garnish and Enjoy:

   • Garnish with fresh strawberries or a mint leaf if desired. Enjoy your refreshing and delicious Strawberry Dole Whip!
