WATERMELON CUPCAKES
My granddaughter and I bake together each week. She was inspired by her mommy's flavored syrups, so we came up with these watermelon cupcakes. If you are not going to pipe the frosting, you can reduce the amount of frosting by half. -Elizabeth Bramkamp, Gig Harbor, Washington

WATERMELON CUPCAKES
These watermelon cupcakes will be perfect for any summer event. They're tender and sweet with a hint of watermelon flavor. The frosting is rich, creamy, sweet, and delicious on top of the cupcakes. Watermelon and cupcakes are the usual picnic fare. Combine the two and you have a really great fresh taste. We loved these cupcakes...

25 BEST WATERMELON DESSERTS - INSANELY GOOD
From insanelygoodrecipes.com
5/5 (4)Published Aug 4, 2021Category Desserts, Recipe Roundup
- Watermelon Sorbet. Sorbet is a vegan-friendly frozen treat that should contain no dairy whatsoever. So, unlike gelato or sherbert, you usually don’t find “creamy” sorbet flavors.
- Watermelon Granita. Granitas are kind of like sorbet in that they’re also made with fruit juices and sugar. The main difference is the texture. Where sorbets are smooth, granitas are fluffy, like shaved ice.
- Strawberry Watermelon Popsicles. As sweet and tasty as watermelon can be, it’s nice to add a little something extra to the mix every once in a while.
- Watermelon Slice Cookies. Since these cookies need three different colors, you might think they’ll take forever to finish, but they’re pretty simple once you get going.
- Chocolate-Covered Watermelon Bites. If you’ve ever worked/baked with chocolate before, you’ll know that chocolate and water do not mix. Melted chocolate will seize and turn into a paste if it gets wet, which is why I always say to be careful when melting chocolate using a water bath.
- Easy Watermelon Cupcakes Recipe. How funky are these watermelon cupcakes? From the bright green cake to the vibrant watermelon flavored frosting, they’ll be a hit at your next pool party.
- Watermelon Milkshakes. I was skeptical of this recipe at first since you don’t usually see watermelon blended with anything creamy. But I was pleasantly surprised.
- Easy Watermelon Ice Cream. Here’s another creamy watermelon recipe, but this time, it’s just like regular ice cream! Though ironically, this is a vegan recipe, so it’s dairy-free.
- Watermelon Chia Parfait. I know that chia seeds don’t look amazing (I’ve heard them likened to fish eggs quite a few times), but they’re loaded with fiber, minerals, antioxidants, and omega-3 fatty acids.
- Watermelon Pizza. Watermelon is a pretty solid choice for a summer dessert. Kids and grown-ups love it, and it’s even safe for dogs, too (just remove the seeds and don’t let them eat the rind).

- For the cake, add cake mix, jello, egg whites, oil and water in a mixing bowl. Beat 2 minutes until blended. Fill cupcake liners 2/3 full and bake in a 350 degree oven for 15-18 minutes. Do not overbake. Allow to cool completely.
- When cooled, spread melted white chocolate over top of each cupcake. While that sets, begin your frosting.
- In mixer, beat butter with powdered sugar, Koolaid mix and milk. Beat for about 3-5 minutes until fluffy and smooth. Using a decorator bag and tip (I used 6S), pipe frosting on each cupcake and immediately sprinkle with chocolate chips. ENJOY!
