Use any fresh fruit that is ripe and delicious in this easy recipe. The buttermilk makes it taste rich and creamy without almost no fat.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 3 cups buttermilk, divided
  • 1 cup mascarpone cheese
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp. almond extract
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
  • 1 Tbsp. grated orange peel
  • 1 cup sliced strawberries
  • 2 cups melon balls
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 2 pears, peeled and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

PREPARATION:

In large bowl, beat together 1 cup buttermilk with the mascarpone cheese until smooth. Gradually add remaining buttermilk, beating until smooth.

Stir in sugar, extracts and salt. Prepare fruit. As you prepare the pears, sprinkle with lemon juice. Gently stir fruit into buttermilk mixture.

Pour into an ungreased 9" square pan, cover tightly, and freeze until firm, about 3-4 hours. Let stand at room temperature 10-15 minutes before cutting into squares to serve. Serves 12.
