Description

Ingredients

• 1 can (13.5 oz) full fat coconut milk
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 1/8 tsp salt
• 1 1/2 Tbsp Amaretto
• 2-3 drops pure almond extract
• 2 cups Bing cherries, pitted and quartered
• 2 Tbsp sugar
• 1 Tbsp Amaretto

Directions

• For the Amaretto mixture, whisk together coconut milk, sugar, salt, Amaretto, and almond extract in a medium bowl. Chill mixture for 2 hours in the refrigerator.
• For the cherry mixture, combine cherries, sugar, and Amaretto in a medium bowl. Let stand 15 minutes, tossing occasionally. Place cherries and their juices in a heavy saucepan over medium heat; cook for 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until cherries have softened. Pour mixture into a food processor and let cool to room temperature. Process until almost smooth, leaving some texture.
• Fill popsicle molds with alternating layers; swirl together with a metal skewer. Freeze for 90 minutes, then insert popsicle sticks and freeze overnight. To unmold, let popsicles stand at room temperature for 5 minutes. Carefully remove from molds and serve.
