Sweet and Creamy Watermelon Ice Cream with Chocolate Chips

Watermelon Ice Cream

Nothing is more cool and refreshing than watermelon. So I just had to try my hand at making a "Sweet and Creamy Watermelon Ice Cream" then I tossed in a few chocolate chips to give it a little crunch; and to my surprise it is absolutely delicious. Can be made with Splenda for diabetics like myself. 


Ingredients

Prep time 20 min
Cook/Bake time 35 minutes
Chill time 3+ hours
Freeze time 2-3 hours
Makes 1 quart


3/4 cup Extra Fine Granulated Sugar; or Splenda No Calorie Sweetener, Granulated 
1 teaspoon cornstarch
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 cup organic whole milk
2 eggs
2/3 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups watermelon juice; approximately 10 cups watermelon cubed pureed  
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips


Directions

In a medium sauce pan heat sugar, cornstarch, whole milk, and heavy cream over medium heat until it starts to bubble and thickens slightly; about 5-10 minutes.  

Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. 

Cool completely.

Puree watermelon in a blender or food processor.  

Pour through a strainer. 

Chill for 3-6 hours.

Mix chilled juice with milk mixture.  

Make sure it is cold.
