Easy to make Kool-Aid Sherbert Recipe for a fun summer treat.
- Prep Time: 5 minutes
- Cook Time: 4 hours freezing
- Total Time: 3 minute
- Yield: 4 servings 1x
Ingredients
- 1 cup of granulated sugar
- 1 Kool-Aid flavor packet – your favorite flavor
- 3 cups of milk (I used 2%)
Instructions
- In a medium sized mixing bowl, pour sugar and Kool-Aid packet into milk
- Stir until dissolved
- Cover and place in the freezer for about 1 hour – until it is partially firm
- Using an electric mixer mix the sherbert mixture until smooth
- Freeze until firm (about 2-4 hours or overnight)
Notes
- I used a my Kitchen-Aid mixing bowl to both mix and freeze the ingredients in. This way there is no transferring of ingredients and less mess to clean up.
- The reason for partially freezing and then mixing it until smooth is to give the Sherbert a creamier consistency. You can skip that part if you want. It will have more of an icy texture.
