Ingredients

1 melon of choice (Cantaloupe, Watermelon, or Honeydew Melon)
Sea Salt
Chukar® Dessert Cherries
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup Greek yogurt
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
3 tablespoons confectioner's sugar
1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice

Directions

Combine heavy cream, Greek yogurt, cream of tartar, confectioner's sugar, lemon juice, and 1 oz. Chukar® Dessert Cherries juice in a bowl and whisk until stiff peaks form. Make sure all ingredients are cold. Use metal bowl and place in freezer with whisk 20 minutes prior to use.
Peel and seed melon(s) of choice.
Slice melons into even slices, about 3/4" thick and at least as wide as your cookie cutter shape of choice.
Cut out shapes in the melon slices.
Take out whip from refrigerator, and pipe on top of melon cakes. If you have a pastry bag, use your tip of choice to make fun designs. If you don't have a pastry bag, fill a plastic bag with whip, and snip a hole out of one of the corners and squeeze out of the opening.
Sprinkle with sea salt and add one of our Chukar® Dessert Cherries on top!
