I actually came up with this idea all on my own, and it was a huge hit. Kirsten's exact words were "these are super awesome." It was so hot the day I made these that they were melting as I was taking the pictures, but you get the point. Super easy and super cute and makes a great summer snack. These are my faux watermelon limes:
Ingredients:
1 lime, sliced in half
raspberry sorbet
mini chocolate chips
Directions:
1. scoop the inside of the lime out of the shell. This can be tough and I found using a serrated grapefruit spoon helped a lot.
2. put some raspberry sorbet in the lime shell and smooth until flat
3. add a few mini chocolate chips on top to look like seeds Pin It
Very cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat are you going to do with the lime pulp you scraped out? You could make a lime sorbet ...
What an awesome idea! I saw something similar with jello but I like the idea of the sorbet better!
ReplyDeleteJen - oops, was I supposed to keep the lime pulp?
ReplyDeleteKara - I was actually looking at jello oranges when I came up with the idea for these.
