Fresh Fruit & Yogurt Cupcakes

Who doesnโ€™t love a thick slice of juicy watermelon on a hot summer day? When I was in charge of dessert for a family get-together, I knew that these Fresh Fruit and Yogurt Cupcakes would be a hit with adults and kids alike! Theyโ€™re only five ingredients, easy to prep ahead and are a healthier, refreshing treat.

I like to scoop the frozen yogurt ahead of time and freeze it on a baking sheet. When itโ€™s time to serve, I just place the frozen scoops on top of thick slices of watermelon. Top with fresh whipped cream and chocolate, and donโ€™t forget the cherry on top!

These healthy, refreshing treats have only five ingredients and are so easy to prepare!
Prep Time 15 minutes
Course Dessert
Servings 12

Ingredients
  

  • Watermelon small/medium
  • Frozen yogurt or ice cream 12 small scoops
  • Chocolate ice cream topping
  • Whipped cream
  • Cherries

Instructions
 

  • Slice watermelon into thick rounds.
  • Use a cookie cutter, biscuit cutter, or small glass to cut watermelon into circles. Place into cupcake wrappers.
  • Top with a scoop of vanilla frozen yogurt, chocolate topping, whipped cream, and a cherry.

Notes

  • I used homemade Magic Shell ice cream topping. You can use store-bought, homemade or traditional hot fudge topping.
  • Double or triple paper cupcake wrappers if they are not lined with wax to help prevent watermelon juice from dripping through the bottom.
  • You can scoop the frozen yogurt or ice cream ahead of time and freeze it on a flat baking sheet, plate, or platter. This makes it easy to serve a crowd quickly.
