Gelo Di Melone is a popular Sicilian dessert recipe with blended watermelon boiled in cornstarch mixture and flavored with vanilla. This version of Sicilian Watermelon Pudding Recipe comes with a cinnamon twist. I have added cinnamon to oomph up the flavor of this popular Sicilian dessert, and topped it up with walnuts. Back in Sicily (Italy), the Gelo Di Melone is also served topped with whipped cream, pista or chocolate shavings to garnish.
