Equipment

Ingredients

  • 4 Cups Frozen Seedless Watermelon cut into cubes
  • 1 Cup Sugar Free Condensed Milk
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Use fully frozen watermelon cubes; freeze fresh cubes beforehand if needed.
  • Blend watermelon with sugar-free condensed milk until smooth, scraping sides as needed.
  • Transfer to a container and freeze about 2 hours until scoopable.
  • Let sit briefly, then scoop and serve, adding mint if desired.

Notes

  • If your blender struggles with fully frozen fruit, let the cubes sit on the counter for 3 to 4 minutes before blending, just enough to take the edge off without thawing them.
  • A loaf pan works better than a wide shallow container for this dessert. The depth keeps the mixture from freezing too hard at the edges, while the center stays soft.
  • For a more intense watermelon flavor, add a small pinch of salt before blending. It sharpens the fruit flavor without making the finished dessert taste salty.
  • Leftovers kept longer than 24 hours will freeze rock solid. Move the container to the fridge for 10 to 15 minutes before scooping rather than leaving it at room temperature, which softens it unevenly.
  • Chocolate chips or small chunks of dark chocolate stirred in just before the final freeze add a nice contrast to the sweetness of a watermelon-and-chocolate pairing.
