Ingredients

• melon 1 pc.
• condensed milk 300 g
• fat cream 400 g
• vanilla crackers 300 g
• butter 150 g
• chocolate 150 g
• cognac (rum, brandy) 2 tbsp. l.

Cooking

Step 1

First prepare a few melon balls with an ice cream scoop for decoration.

Step 2

Grind crackers to fine crumbs in a blender. Grind softened butter with crumbs.

Step 3

Melt chocolate in a water bath, cool and add cognac. Mix with crumbs - knead the dough and put it in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

Step 4

Grind the melon with an immersion mixer. Next, beat the cream separately, add condensed milk and melon mousse to them - the cream is ready.

Step 5

Now we will prepare a detachable form, with a diameter of 22 cm and cover it with cling film. Put the prepared dough into the form. Raising the edges of the dough, we make the sides. Pour the melon cream into the mold, cover with a film and put it in the freezer for 4-5 hours.

Step 6

We take out the finished cake from the freezer, remove the ring from the mold and cut into portioned pieces with a hot knife.

Step 7

Serve garnished with melon balls, sprinkled with coconut or garnished with mint sprigs.
