This is Debbie from Made From Pinterest and I’m so excited to be back here at Mandy’s Recipe Box with a super quick and easy recipe to end your summer with- Watermelon Cupcakes!
People who know me know that I don’t like watermelon. Oh, I love things that taste like watermelon, for example, Watermelon Jolly Ranchers. Absolutely love them! Watermelon Sonic Slushies? I’m there. But just watermelon itself? I’ll pass. Now these Watermelon Cupcakes? I could eat these all day! Although they don’t really have a watermelon taste to them, it doesn’t matter because they are so dang cute, they will get gobbled up in no time!
With chocolate chips for seeds, no one will be spitting these out all over their plates. Now that’s my kinda watermelon seed!
