#627: Melt-in-Your-Mouth Melon
I stumbled upon this recipe on Family Fun Magazine's web page and it was too cute not to try to make! I'm going to tell you the one (and only) bad thing about this recipe: you have to pretty much make it and serve it immediately. :(
I prefer recipes that can be made ahead of time, but with this one, you have to freeze the melon for about 15 minutes, then fill with sorbet, cut and serve. Not my ideal recipe, but this was a perfect, refreshing summer dessert.
1 honeydew melon
Raspberry sorbet
Chocolate chips
Halve the honeydew, discard the seeds, and chill it overnight in the fridge. (I did this in the morning and served in the evening)
The next day, put the halves in the freezer for 15 minutes, pull them out, and pack them with sorbet, gently evening off the top. Using a chilled knife, slice each half into halves again (make sure the melon is sorbet side up). Finally, insert a row of chocolate chip seeds and serve immediately.
