SERVES 12

With just five ingredients, this fluffy, effort-

less dessert comes together in minutes

with a flavor reminiscent of a tiki cocktail.

For an adult version, swap^1 / 4 cup of the

coconut cream for the same amount of

your favorite rum.

11 / 2 lb. fresh pineapple chunks, cut into

(^1) / 2 -inch pieces (about 6 cups)
11 / 4 cups unsweetened coconut cream
1 / 4 cup light agave nectar

A quick whirl in a food
processor transforms
frozen pineapple into a
frosty whipped dessert.
For firm scoops, freeze
mixture for 1 hour.
Toasted unsweetened flaked coconut,
for garnish

1. Spread pineapple in an even layer on a
   baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
   Freeze at least 8 hours or up to overnight.


2. Place frozen pineapple, coconut cream,
   agave, and salt in a food processor; pulse
   until finely chopped, about 40 times. Pro-
   cess until smooth and airy, 3 to 4 minutes,
   stopping to scrape down sides of bowl as
   needed. Serve soft, or transfer to an airtight
   container, and freeze until just firm, about 1
   hour. Garnish with flaked coconut.
   MAKE AHEAD Soft serve may be stored in an
   airtight container in freezer up to 3 months.
