Ingredient Checklist:
- 1 large seedless watermelon
- cream cheese, room temperature
- powdered sugar
- teaspoon vanilla extract
- milk chocolate chips
- coconut oil or vegetable shortening
- Fresh fruit for decorating: kiwi, fresh berries like a cup strawberries, fresh blueberries
Directions
Slice the watermelon into rounds or wedges, about 1-inch thick, to resemble pizza crust.
In a medium bowl make the cream cheese frosting, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla. Mix until smooth.
Prepare the fruit for decorating the pizza. Make sure fruit is washed, dried, and sliced (if needed).
Pat the watermelon slices with a paper towel to help the cream cheese mixture stick. Use a ripe watermelon and with a sharp knife cut thick rounds from the center of the watermelon. Place your rounds slice on a serving platter.
Evenly spread cream cheese mixture over the watermelon slices.
Decorate as desired with fruit.
Melt milk chocolate chips with coconut oil in a small bowl in the microwave for 30 seconds. Stir well.
Drizzle over fruit. Garnish with mint leaves.
Refrigerate your watermelon pizza until ready to serve, as it’s best if served immediately. When you are ready to serve, you can cut your round slice into watermelon wedges aka: pizza slices.
Tips for Best Results
- Choose a Ripe Watermelon. Look for a watermelon that feels heavy for its size and has a deep, hollow sound when tapped. This indicates ripeness and sweetness.
- Get Creative with Toppings! Let your imagination run wild when it comes to toppings! From slices of your favorite fruit or your favorite berries to unsweetened coconut and fresh mint, there are endless possibilities to customize your watermelon pizza.
- For the most refreshing experience, chill your watermelon pizza in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and enhances the overall taste.
- Use a sharp knife to slice your watermelon into rounds or wedges. Take your time to ensure clean cuts and uniform slices for a visually appealing presentation.
