Ingredients

Kiwi Lime Pie Popsicles

  • 1 cup raw cashews soaked 4 to 6 hours
  • 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
  • juice from 3 large limes about ⅓ cup
  • 3 ripe golden kiwiws skin removed or 4 regular kiwis
  • ½ cup honey or agave nectar or to taste
  • 1 cup crushed graham crackers
  • 2 large egg whites
  • cup sugar

Instructions

Kiwi Lime Pie Popsicles

  • Place the soaked cashews, coconut milk, lime juice, kiwis, and honey in a high-powered blender. Blend on high until creamy and smooth*
  • Distribute evenly in the popsicle molds and freeze for about 1-2 hours,  Sprinkle in the graham cracker crumbs and press them gently into the "batter."  Insert the sticks and freeze until solid.
  • When ready (once the pops are frozen), place the egg whites and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer.  Fill a saucepan with a few inches on water and bring to a simmer.  Lower the heat and place the mixer bowl on top to create a double-boiler.  Whisking intermittently, heat the egg white mixture until 160 degrees on a candy thermometer.
  • Carefully remove the mixer bowl and place it on a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.  Whisk on high until stiff peaks and the mixture has returned to room temperature (about 8 minutes).  
  • Dip, dollop, and swirl the meringue on the frozen popsicles. Place on a sheet pan and refreeze for 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from the freezer and toast the meringue with a culinary torch! Enjoy immediately, or place back on a sheet pan, cover and freeze.
  • *The seeds from the kiwis may make the mixture seem slightly grainy.  I ended up blending just a bit longer than normal to compensate.  You can try straining them out, but it wasn't worth the trouble for me.  Once frozen, you can hardly notice.
