Distinct- Flavored Watermelon Chiffon Pie for Summer
When we talk about Chiffon, we usually think about Lemon Chiffon pie since it’s the most popular chiffon. However, we can still experiment with other flavors. Like in this recipe, we used watermelon. It has light flavor that everyone will love. A whipped cream on top and we have a charming dessert for family and kids.

Recipe Notes
Watermelons do not have much flavor which is why Jell-O is used than the plain gelatin. However if the watermelon you chose has many flavors, then it is not needed. However I suggest that you use both.
If you want to try other flavors, use non-flavored gelatin first but if it is not satisfying, then add Jell-O.
Watermelon Chiffon is best paired with heavy meals such as BBQ. The spicy flavor on sauces or sandwiches combined with the airy flavor of chiffon makes an excellent meal.
