No Bake Desserts
No bake desserts are very popular because they are easy to make and you don’t have to turn on the oven! As a result, you spend less time in the kitchen and less time cleaning up. Thus giving you more time to enjoy eating the no bake dessert you whipped up. I like that!
Using fresh fruit in a no bake dessert is a no-brainer, because the fresh fruit can help you cut down on how much sugar you use to sweeten the dessert. It is a dessert recipe, after all, so it needs a little sweetness and fresh fruit is a much healthier choice.
In our Strawberry Dole Whip recipe we didn’t add any extra sweetness. The natural sweetness in fresh Florida strawberries provided all the sweetness we needed for this no bake dessert. However, when you make this recipe be sure to give it a taste and add your desired sweetener to your liking.
Fresh Florida Strawberries
Did you know that Florida is the Winter Strawberry Capital of the World?! It’s true! Florida strawberry season runs from December through April, which means we can enjoy fresh strawberries all winter long! Florida strawberries are available all up and down the eastern portion of the United States, so if you are east of the Mississippi be sure to look for them in the produce section of your favorite grocery store. If your store isn’t carrying fresh Florida strawberries, just ask the manager to get them for you.
Strawberry Dole Whip No Bake Dessert
Strawberry Dole Whip is a refreshing dessert or snack recipe both kids and adults will enjoy. Because this recipe uses fresh strawberries and almond milk, it is a healthy no bake dessert option you can feel good about serving your family.
You’ll also LOVE how EASY this recipe is to make! All you need is a pound of fresh strawberries (frozen), a half cup of unsweetened almond milk, a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors, and a blender to blend everything into a creamy, dreamy frozen dessert. Of course, if you want to add a little bit of sweetener to this recipe, you certainly can, but we found the fresh Florida strawberries brought just the right amount of sweetness for our tastes.
Tip: I hull and slice the strawberries and stick them in the freezer for about 30 minutes to an hour before using in this recipe. That way it doesn’t need ice to make it a frozen treat. Ice waters down the flavor, so it’s definitely worth the effort to freeze the strawberries prior to making this recipe.

So yummy! I haven’t had a Dole Whip in years—now I’ll just make one at home!
I must try this! The last time I had Dole Whip was at Disney, the day after the Food Wine Conference 🙂
Almond milk is a great choice to go with strawberries. Delicious!
