Depending on where you are in the country — or where your seasonal loyalties lie — you're either falling (sorry, couldn't resist) headlong into the crisp pleasures of autumn or desperately clinging to the last shreds of summer. However you lean, you're in luck: We have two cool desserts for this latest S installment of Icy Treats A to Z. Let's let them duke it out, shall we?
Sour Cherry Popsicles
In the first corner, we have these gorgeous Sour Cherry Popsicles from Linda Xiao at The Tart Tart. Sour cherries have the briefest of seasons: Their bright cherry flavor captures the very essence of summer's all-too-fleeting bliss. If you want to make these now, you'll likely have to source some frozen sour cherries, unless, of course, you already have some squirreled away in your freezer.
Sweet Potato Ice Cream and Maple-Glazed Pecans
And in the second corner, we have Blogger Megan DeKok from Take a Megabite's autumnal Sweet Potato Ice Cream and Maple-Glazed Pecans, rich with cozy flavors that call to mind crisp air and holiday pie.
Which flavor will emerge victorious? Even this particular author, a die-hard devotee of all things summer, is going to have trouble deciding. A tie, then?
