Strawberry Sorbet {Sorbet Cookies}



When life gives you sorbet, make sorbet sandwiches!  
The last few days Ky (5) has been begging for ice cream. Flavor? Cone? Who cares, says a 5 year old!   Let's just say my little sorbet princess was in heaven!  


This simple strawberry sorbet has just 4 ingredients and is oh so delightful!  
Ky said "Moooom, this is the very best ice cream I've ever had! Can I have another one?" A mom's response... absolutely not! But if you clean the dishes you can have 2 more!  


To make this sorbet extra kid-friendly sandwich the sorbet in between two shortbread cookies! What kid could resist a sorbet sandwich?? My girls sure couldn't.

  3. Absolutely beautiful! I'm about to get up and go make frozen yogurt, but if I didn't have expiring Greek yogurt, I would be making this instead. I love that it uses orange juice.

    Your kids are lucky. :)

  33. Anyone have any thoughts on changing out the orange juice for lemon juice? I am allergic to oranges!! And love sorbert...

  35. HI Barbara- I think it would be just fine to sub the lemon. Since lemon is slightly more sour than orange I may add a little more sugar :) Hope that helps!
