THIRSTY THURSDAY

When I saw the photo for this recipe in the current issue of TASTE OF HOME I knew I had to post the recipe. It looked so refreshing. Dipping the rims of the glasses in crushed lemon drops really adds to the eye appeal.

CREAMY LEMON MILK SHAKES
2 tbsp. crushed lemon drop candies
1 tsp. sugar
1/2 small lemon, cut into six slices, divided
1/2 c. 2% milk
2 c. vanilla ice cream
2 c. lemon sorbet
3 oz. cream cheese, softened
2 tsp. grated lemon peel
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

In a shallow dish, mix crushed lemon drops and sugar. Using 1 or 2 lemon slices, moisten the rims of 4 glasses; dip rims in candy mixture. Place milk, ice cream, sorbet, cream cheese, lemon peel and vanilla in a blender; cover and process until smooth. Pour into prepared glasses; serve immediately with remaining lemon slices.
