Refreshing Watermelon Cupcakes

These Delicious Cupcakes Look and Taste Like Fresh Watermelon

These watermelon cupcakes are a great dessert item to make on a hot summer's day. These cupcakes even look and taste like the refreshing pink melon.

To make these watermelon cupcakes begin by mixing up the pink batter. You can mix up vanilla cake batter and add pink food coloring. If you'd like an authentic melon flavor, add watermelon juice into the cake mix. If the pink coloring isn't rosy enough add a few drops of red food coloring. Then add chocolate chips to act as the black watermelon seeds. Bake in the oven and when they're cooled add a drizzle of watermelon glaze made from a Jell-O packet. Then add green icing to replicate the look of the watermelon rind and enjoy!
