Here is how you make Cold Peach-Hazelnut Soup:

Start with around 10 medium to large peaches. Blanch, put into cold water bath, and peel and pit; you will need 6 cups of the sliced peeled peaches. SAVE peels. >Put peels (not pits) into water in Dutch oven, along with Splenda Brown Sugar Blend. Simmer on low until slightly reduced and very fragrant - around 10-12 minutes. Strain through metal sieve over bowl, pressing down on solids to get all liquid out. You should have around 1 2/3 cup liquid. Discard peels.>Return liquid to Dutch oven, add peaches, regular Splenda, hazelnut syrup, and lime juice. Cook over low, stirring occasionally, until peaches are VERY soft, around 30 minutes.>Remove from heat and allow to cool for at least one hour. You can cool the soup in the Dutch oven (or a large bowl) in an ice-water bath to reduce the cooling time. In batches, process in blender or food processor fitted with a metal blade until smoothly pureed. >Taste to adjust for sweetness - you may add some regular Splenda at this point, if needed.>Chill for at least 3 hours or overnight.>Serve with a few fresh mint leaves and a drizzle of evaporated skim milk. You may also top with around a teaspoon of toasted hazelnuts. (Add-ons not included in nutrition information)>>Total yield approx. 5 1/2 cups, for 7 servings of generous 3/4 cup portions.>>**** You may omit the Splenda Brown Sugar blend and use an additional 5 packets of regular Splenda; this will reduce the calories for the recipe by 115 (reduction of 16.43 calories per serving). I like it better with the brown sugar blend, but it's a matter of personal taste.>Either way it's a delightfully refreshing dish to have on a hot summer day!Number of Servings: 7Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user RAVENSVOICE.
