Watermelon Ice Cream Summer Treat

One of my favorite coolers in the summer is watermelon ice cream.  We all love it and it's easy to make.

Whether you make them in muffin cups, molds or kids pops these are a favorite of mine and it'll be a favorite of yours too.  Yummy!




2 cups seedless (cut in medium size cubes) watermelon
4 cups vanilla ice cream softened
mini chocolate chips (optional) 1 cup beaten heavy cream or Cool Whip( for topping)

Soften ice cream on counter.  

Drain watermelon (sometimes they are very juicy), add ice cream and blend into a consistency of a milkshake.  Hint: There's an idea!


If you want to do more a larger container will work well for freezing. Do as above in a blender making sure to blend ice cream and watermelon thoroughly and pour into container.  Freeze several hours until firm.

Note: When dipping it is a good idea to dip your dipper in warm water for easy scooping.

 I  sometimes use a 13x9 inch glass baking dish and use it to freeze until hard..Best if frozen overnight..

Easy to make and serve!  Use ice cream scooper to scoop out and serve.. or maybe pops!! You decide.  It's a fun dessert and treat for all who love watermelon.  Enjoy!
