Watermelon cupcakes=Summer!

I would have held off posting these had I known about a cupcake challenge!...but these are for Hoosier Homemade's Cupcake Tuesday Cupcake Challenge.

When I think of summer I really do think watermelon really represents so well. These are watermelon cake with watermelon cream cheese icing with pieces of chocolate candy melts for seeds.

Watermelon Cupcakes:

• 1 box white cake mix
• 1 (3 ounce) package of watermelon jello
• 1 and 1/3 cups cubed watermelon
• 3 egg whites
• 1 tablespoon of oil

Watermelon Icing:

• 6 ounces of cream cheese
• 1/4 c butter
• 1/4 c watermelon juice
• 3+ cups confectioner's sugar

the green wrappers are a must for the full effect....I also used enough confectioner's sugar until the icing was pipeable and even that was hard with the 98+ degree weather on the east coast....there really is nothing better than watermelon in the summertime...!

...and if you can't do this...

...these are the next best thing....enjoy!

sharing these at tidy mom!
