Last month my girls made these cupcakes for the first time. With the feast of St. Anne coming up on July 26th, I thought I would share the recipe here at Catholic Cuisine, continuing the Watermelon Theme for St. Anne's feast day which was originally inspired by Charlotte and her girls!
Watermelon Cupcakes
Ingredients:
1 box white cake mix or your own white cupcake recipe
1 cup boiling water
1 small box of watermelon flavored Jell-O or any red colored Jell-O
1 8oz container of Cool Whip, thawed
red & green liquid food coloring
mini chocolate chips
Directions:
Make your own Cupcakes from scratch or using a boxed mix. Use cupcake liners. Cool cupcakes.
Stir boiling water into powdered Jell-O until dissolved. Pierce tops of cupcakes several times with a meat fork or straw.
Spoon Jell-O over cupcakes, making sure that the liquid is going down into the holes.
Refrigerate 30 min. Remove from pans.
Tint Cool Whip with red and green food coloring.
Using plastic baggies to hold the whipped topping, pipe a green circle around the outside rim of each cupcake.
Fill the middle with pink whipped topping.
Add mini chocolate chips to represent watermelon seeds.
Store in refrigerator. Best if eaten the same day.

Oh, this just looks perfect for little gals (and even more perfect for my middle gal, Anna, who will celebrate her feast day with St. Anne) Thank you!
