It’s May and it is starting to warm up here in Arizona – just a few days ago we had our first 100 degree day. This is an ice cream type dessert without any dairy or processed sugar.
It is so pretty in a small wine glass like this one handed down to me by my grandmother. When serving treats find some pretty dishes that will lend itself well to portion control.
