## How to Make Watermelon Ice Cream (No-Churn Method)

### Step 1: Freeze the Watermelon

Chop your seedless watermelon into cubes and freeze them on a baking sheet for 3–4 hours or until solid.

### Step 2: Blend the Base

Add the frozen watermelon to a high-speed blender or food processor along with condensed milk (or coconut cream), vanilla, and lime juice. Blend until smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides a few times.

### Step 3: Fold in the Fun

Want to get playful? Stir in some mini chocolate chips to mimic watermelon seeds — it’s a fun twist and adds a pop of texture.

### Step 4: Freeze Again (Optional)

You can enjoy the ice cream soft-serve style immediately, or freeze it for 1–2 hours for a firmer, scoopable texture.
