David’s Note: Pack these treats into a cooler & enjoy their fruity flavor at the beach.

Tip: Substitute 6 lemons or 4 oranges for the 8 limes & use their corresponding gelatin flavor to fill the rinds.

Preparation:

1.) Cut the limes in half lengthwise and carefully loosen the flesh from the peel with a paring knife, cutting around the edge and bottom of the flesh but not through the peel. Using a teaspoon, scoop out the flesh, leaving a hollow peel.

2.) Take the hollow peels and place them cut-side up in the indentations of a muffin pan.

3.) In a small mixing bowl, combine the gelatin with the boiling water. Stir until dissolved. Fill each of the hollow limes with the prepared gelatin and refrigerate until set, about 1 hour.

4.) When the gelatin is set, remove the filled limes from the muffin pan and cut each in half lengthwise, creating a small wedge. Place about 3–4 sesame seeds or 2–3 chocolate chips on each side of the wedge so they look like watermelon seeds. Serve cold.
