Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium cantaloupe
- 1 medium honeydew melon
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 5 leaves fresh mint leaves
- 1 cup ice cubes
Instructions
Slice the cantaloupe and honeydew melon in half, remove the seeds, and use a melon baller to scoop out small, round balls. Set aside in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, combine the heavy cream, condensed milk, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar. Whisk everything together until smooth and slightly thickened, about 2–3 minutes.
Gently fold the cream mixture into the bowl with the melon balls, ensuring the melon pieces are evenly coated.
Transfer the entire mixture to a serving dish or individual dessert bowls.
Chill the dessert in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, garnish each serving with a fresh mint leaf and a few ice cubes for extra coolness and presentation.
Serve immediately and enjoy the creamy, fruity taste of summer!
