I was recently going through Walt Disney World withdrawals and I was having the a serious Dole Whip craving. Since I know that I would not be making a visit to Aloha Isle or Cap’n Cook’s, I decided to try making this delicious treat at home. I found this recipe and gave it a whirl. It was easy to make and while the final product did not have the exact texture of the Disney Dole Whip, the taste surely satisfied my craving. It will definitely do nicely until the next time I can taste the Disney version! Give it a try and let me know what you think.
