  Categories: Frozen, Desert, Shara
       Yield: 8 servings
  
       3 md Peaches
       1    Envelope unflavored gelatin
     1/4 c  Cold water
       1 c  Prickly pear juice
   1 1/2 c  Prickly pear pieces
     1/2 c  Honey
       5 tb Lemon juice
     1/2 c  Whipping cream
  
   Plunge the peaches into a large pot of boiling water for one minute;
   using a slotted spoon, transfer them immediately to a large bowl of
   cold water. The skins should slip off easily.  Slice the peaches.
   There should be about 1 1/2 cups.
   
   Sprinkle gelatin over the 1/4 cup of cold water in a small bowl.  Set
   aside.  Combine 1 cup prickly pear juice with peach slices and prickly
   pear pieces in a medium saucepan.  Simmer over low heat for five
   minutes.
   
   Turn off the heat under the fruit and strain off 1 cup of juice.  In a
   small saucepan, combine the juice and honey and cook gently just at a
   simmer for eight minutes.  Add the softened gelatin and lemon juice
   to the honey mixture and stir until gelatin is dissolved.
   
   Puree the fruit and remaining juice in a blender.  Combine with the
   gelatin and honey mixture and freeze in a bread pan or similar
   container. When nearly hard, remove from freezer, transfer to a bowl,
   and beat with an electric mixer.  Beat the whipping cream until stiff
   and fold into the fruit mixture.  Return to the bread pan.  Refreeze
   until firm.
