Rocco DiSpirito’s Instant Strawberry Soft Serve

Make a sweet, frozen treat at home with celebrity chef Rocco DiSpirito’s five-minute strawberry
soft serve recipe.

Makes: Four 4 oz desserts

Per serving: 55 calories, .2 g fat, 0 mg cholesterol, 3 mg sodium, 14 g carbohydrate, 2 g fiber, 0
g protein.
Prep time: approximately 2 minutes, processing time: approximately 1 minute

Ingredients:

● 2 tsp stevia (6 packets Stevia In The Raw)
● 1/2 tsp xanthan gum
● 1 tbsp water
● 1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
● 2 tbsp raw agave nectar
● 2 cups frozen, no-sugar-added strawberries

Directions:

1. Mix the stevia and xanthan together in a small mixing bowl and set aside.
2. Add the water, lemon juice and agave in a blender and turn blender on and process on low.
Add the stevia/xanthan mixture to the blender and process on low until the mixture well
combined, about 10 seconds.

3. Turn off the blender, add the strawberries then turn the blender on high while pushing the
strawberries down into the blade until smooth but still frozen, about 5 to 10 seconds.

4. Spoon out into paper cups or chilled bowls and serve immediately. If covered tightly, it may be
stored in the freezer for two days. If it is too hard after holding, simply put in the microwave on
high for 10 seconds to loosen just enough to scoop.

Tips:

1. Put the canister of the blender in the freezer before you make this recipe to help combat the
heat generated during blending. This will help keep your ice nice and frozen.

2. If you desire a rich ice cream-like product then add 1 tbsp of fat free milk powder for an
additional 30 calories and 3 grams of protein.

  1. I actually forgot the xanthan and stevia. It was like gelato. I enjoyed it. Then I added the mixture. I prefer without it
