Amazing Watermelon "cake"

Please be sure to follow me on Pinterest
I have this amazingly crafty & creative friend. She manages to make anything look good. We all have a friend like that, right? Well, while out shopping the other day, she says, I want to make a watermelon cake that I saw on Pinterest. So away she went picking up ingredients.

We get back to her house, she disappears off into the kitchen with cool whip, a watermelon, kiwi, & strawberries. She bursts back out into the dining room and presents this masterpiece! 

I am first of all awestruck at her creativity, but the execution on this cake is amazing. 

To make the "cake" part of this watermelon cake, you cut off the ends of the watermelon, leaving the large midsection of the watermelon. You then cut the skin off of the watermelon, leaving a nice round "cake"! Then you would "frost" the "cake" with cool whip, and place your decorations on the outside. You can choose other fruits to make it more festive for the 4th of July! Enjoy :)

Delicious "cone creations"

With the 4th coming up this week, I thought that I would put together a couple of recipes. This one is amazing, & the kids can join in to make their own "cone creations". We thought of names for this, but none really came to mind. They are incredibly simple, and depending on what you choose (or the children choose) to put inside of them, they can be relatively healthy. For ours, we chose waffle cones, nutella, strawberries, bananas, & marshmallows.  The assembly is simple, and you can choose to set up stations if you are going to get the children involved in making them. I would suggest lining the inside of the cone with nutella, and then letting the children take it from there. You could also do the traditional whopper chocolate candy at the bottom of the cone like you would for ice cream cones. (note: we did not do that) 
 After you line the inside of the cone with nutella (or peanut butter, my youngest son has nut allergies, so we use nutella in peanut butters place with most recipes) Then you would add the other ingredients.
We mixed all of our ingredients (strawberries, bananas & marshmallows) into a bowl together, and then scooped them into the cone. 
Once you have all of the ingredients that you choose inside of the cone, then you would wrap them up in aluminum foil. 





Once you get the cones all wrapped up inside of the aluminum foil, you can choose to either place them on the grill or on a fire. (I would suggest using some sort of a grate to be able to get them out easier) 






We put ours on the grill. Only leave them there for a few minutes just to warm them up. If you choose to put other ingredients inside of the cones that require melting, I would suggest using your best judgement as to how long it may take for those things to melt.




Other suggested ingredients include, but are not limited to:
  • blue berries 
  • raspberries 
  • chocolate chips
Let me know what you would suggest for ingredients!
