Limber de Coco (Coconut Cream Popsicles) Limber de Coco In every neighborhood in Puerto Rico there is an old lady that will sell you limber for 50 cents, back in my day it was 25 cents.

Limber de Coco (Coconut Cream Popsicles)

Usually she will come out in a “bata” or mu-mu with curlers in her hair. I remember when I was a little girl there was this lady that lived down the street and sold limber in 5 different flavors, coconut was my favorite. Limber is basically a popsicle, but it is usually sold in small dixie cups. These are a great treat on a hot day. Today was a definitely hot and hubby spent most of his day outside while I was in the kitchen.

Hubby LOVES I mean LOVES coconut, I think he may have been deserted on an island in a past life and lived off of coconuts. Mmmmmm they are so delicious, great to have in the freezer for your kids or your hot Hubby…..you know because he has been out in the sun all day….. literally he is hot. Limber de Coco Directions Mix evaporated milk, coconut milk, sugar, vanilla, egg yolk and cinnamon in a bowl. Pour into popsicle molds. Banana Split Bites. Banana Split Bites ~ A classic ice cream dessert gets mini for some bite size fun.

Banana Split Bites

And yes, there is actually a tiny scoop of ice cream tucked inside and underneath the whip cream of those little darlings. Banana Split Mini Bites For once I made something mini for portion control and not just for the cute factor. My little guy had some friends over the other day and of course with a mom who is a baker, the expectation is dessert will not only be good but it will be fun. And I was asked, by friend Caroline, not to let her boys eat too much dessert. Keeping all things in mind what I served is what you see here. Here’s what wasn’t a hit and what I learned. Impromptu play dates with four kid’s ages 3-5 year olds after a full work day –not a good idea.Know in advance what other kids will and won’t eat.

Luckily, dessert made all things right. No recipe just a few notes: Use firm bananas and cut into 1 inch sections. Leave a Comment.

What's Cookin' in Mama Jan's Kitchen?: Easy Peasy Garlic Rolls

It was always a treat to go out for dinner, especially if it was at Palazzio's! Aaaahhhhhh, Palazzio's had these amazing garlic rolls. The servers wandered around refilling your plate whenever you were down to the last one. 8 years later, I don't even remember what else they served. I remember garlic rolls and a self-serve wine bar. If only I could recreate Palazzio's recipe for garlic rolls... My husband and I are huge garlic fans... so unless you love garlic, you may want to cut the number of cloves in... oh, I don't know... half?
