Summer Party Treat: Watermelon Cupcakes

My co-blogger at Robust Cooking, Sandy, found a wonderful website loaded with watermelon goodness. There are several fun kids watermelon recipes that would make a great dessert, or snack for a summer birthday party, or barbecue.

Here’s one of the cutest recipes, they’re soooo simple, but so elegant:

Watermelon Cupcakes

What you’ll need~

• 8 cupcake liners
• 8 cupcake shaped pieces of seedless watermelon, (see below)

Place the liners in an 8-cup cupcake tin. Cut 3-inch thick slices of seedless watermelon. Cut round cupcake sized pieces from the slices. Put a watermelon ‘cupcake’ in each liner. Place a dollop of frosting on each cupcake. Decorate as desired with sprinkles. Serves 8.
