Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 5 cups seedless watermelon pulp (about half a medium watermelon)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1 pint fat-free lime sherbet, softened (or low-fat, or can use frozen yogurt)
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Puree watermelon and sugar in batches in your blender or food processor until smooth and strain into a medium bowl. Cover and freeze until puree is slightly slushy, but not quite solid, about 2 to 3 hours. Remove from freezer, stir well and add in chocolate chips.

  • Step 2: Place twelve 5-ounce disposable cups in a shallow baking pan and spoon watermelon puree into cups, leaving about a 1/2 inch left from the rim. Place pan in freezer for 2 hours, or until puree is solid, but not rock hard.

  • Step 3: Allow lime sherbet to soften a bit, then spread over top of each portion of watermelon puree so that it comes up to the edge of the cup.

  • Step 4: Smooth sherbet with the back of a spoon and cover each cup with plastic wrap. Cut a small slit in the center of each cup and insert a popsicle stick into each pop so that it almost reaches the bottom of the cups.

  • Step 5: Freeze until solid (about 6-8 hours or overnight).

  • Step 6: Allow pops to sit at room temperature for about a minute, then gently pull out from the cups -- enjoy!
