Ingredients

  • WATERMELON FREEZE
  • 2-1/2 pounds Tomorrow's® Organics watermelon pieces, enough to yield 2-1/2 cups watermelon purée
  • 1/2 cup raw cane sugar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh Tomorrow's® Organics lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon light rum
  • LIME CREAM FREEZE
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon grated Tomorrow's® Organics lime zest
  • 1/2 cup fresh Tomorrow's® Organics lime juice
  • 1/2 cup chilled heavy cream
  • EQUIPMENT
  • Ice Cream Maker

Method

Step 1

WATERMELON FREEZE: Line a 9-inch square baking pan (2 inches deep) with plastic wrap or parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang. Put the lined pan in the freezer.

Step 2

Coarsely chop the watermelon flesh, then purée enough to yield 2-1/2 cups in a blender.

Step 3

Add sugar, juice, and rum to the watermelon purée; blend for 30 seconds.

Step 4

Freeze sorbet in an ice cream maker. Transfer to the lined baking pan, smoothing the top. Place the pan in the freezer to harden, at least one hour.

Step 5

LIME CREAM FREEZE: Whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, lime zest, and juice.

Step 6

Beat the chilled heavy cream in a separate bowl just until stiff peaks form, then gently fold into the condensed-milk mixture.

Step 7

Spread over sorbet, smoothing the top. Freeze until solid, at least two hours.

Step 8

ASSEMBLE: Add alternating scoops of watermelon and lime cream freezes to chilled bowls.

COOK'S NOTE: Covered, this dessert will last up to four days in the freezer.
