Peach and Raspberry Sorbet
"This is a fabulously easy and elegant sorbet that you absolutely don't need an ice cream freezer for. This also works well with plums, any kind of berry and mangos."

- Ingredients:
- 4
- Serves:
-
4-6
ingredients
- 5 peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1 pint fresh raspberries or 1 1/2 cups frozen raspberries
- 4 tablespoons white sugar, to taste
- Chambord raspberry liquor or limoncello, for drizzling
directions
- Slice the peaches and lay single layer on a cookie sheet covered with parchment or plastic wrap.
- Place the raspberries separate from the peaches on the same cookie sheet. Freeze 3 hours or overnight.
- Remove from freezer and let sit for 10 minutes.
- Using a small amount of the peaches at a time (maybe 6 or 7 slices) drop them in a food processor fitted with a sharp blade and process. You will need to stop it occasionally and scrape it down, be patient, until it reaches sorbet consistency.
- For each batch add a bit of sugar to taste (I usually use about 1 tbsp, depends on how ripe the peaches are).
- As you finish each batch, place it into a bowl and put in the freezer (mix each batch into the subsequent batch.).
- When you are done processing the peaches, pour all the raspberries into the processor and 2 tbsp sugar, process as above.
- Dump the raspberries on top of the peach sorbet and fold in with a spatula.
- Drizzle with a little chambord or limoncello if desired.

Mom with two grown kids, daughter 17 and son 22. Daughter is incredibly picky to the point of watching me cook to be sure there is nothing she wont eat in the menu and inspecting each forkfull before she eats it and wont eat anything with onions or the aroma of onions or if there is an onion any where near her food or within 50 miles. Dinners can be very stressful.
I absolutely LOVE to cook, and love to try new foods. We lead pretty busy lives, so quick healthy and tasty earns big points. Though not a diabetic I am on the diabetes exchange diet in an effort to drop 20 lbs and I am almost at my goal, only 3 more lbs to go!! (10/28/07)
