This year we have a rather early warm/hot summer in Vancouver. Our BBQ season also starts and our summer season dessert needs to be served accordingly. Summer is also a fruit season. Last week was my daughters' fellowship's beach picnic event and they had lots of cantaloupe left. We got 2 large one. Making these popsicles are easy and fun. My guests love them and finished them in a sec.
Creamy Cantaloupe Popsicles (makes ~20 small popsicles)
Ingredients:
2 cups cantaloupe, cubed (about one large cantaloupe)
2 cup heavy whipping cream
1 cup sugar (you can put lesser sugar as the ripe cantaloupe is very sweet)
Directions:
1. Place cantaloupe in a blender (Pic 1) and process until smooth; set aside. (Pic 2)
2. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of cream and sugar.
3. Cook and stir over low heat until sugar is dissolved.
4. Remove from the heat. Add the remaining 1 cup of whipping cream. (Pic 3)
5. Stir in pureed cantaloupe. (Pic 4)
6. Pour equally into your popsicle mould. (Pic 5)
7. Freeze until firm.
