Watermelon Sherbert

6 1/4 cups cubed, de-seeded watermelon*

1 14-oz can sweetened condensed milk**

1/3 c. lime juice

1/4 tsp. salt

Place the watermelon on a large, rimmed baking sheet in freezer. Freeze until frozen, for about 4 hours or overnight.

In food processor, puree frozen watermelon with all other ingredients, in batches if needed, until smooth.

Transfer to large, seal-able container. Cover and freeze until firm, about 4 hours.

Serves 12.

*This recipe would work beautifully with muskmelon as well!

**You could substitute evaporated milk or heavy cream, to better control the sweetness level.

Note - This recipe can easily be halved to use the smaller melons.
