Author: Mrs Happy Homemaker

Ingredients

  • 1 ripe cantaloupe pureed
  • 2 cups cold milk divided
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 .25 ounce envelope unflavored gelatin
  • 1/3 cup honey

Instructions

  • Cut cantaloupe in half; discard seeds. Scoop out pulp (there should be about 4 cups of melon). Place cantaloupe and 1 cup milk in a blender or food processor; cover and process until smooth.
  • In a saucepan, combine sugar and remaining milk. Sprinkle gelatin over top; let stand for 1 minute. Heat over low heat, stirring until gelatin is complete dissolved. Stir in the honey and pureed cantaloupe. Pour into a 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. pan. Cover and freeze until partially frozen, about 3 hours, stirring occasionally.
  • Place cantaloupe mixture in a blender or food processor; cover and process until smooth. Return to the pan. Cover and freeze until almost frozen, about 1 hour.
