I thoroughly enjoyed making all the fun cookies for this marathon and am so happy that I baked all of them which I had planned. As this is summer season I thought why not include a summer themed bake for the marathon. When I think of summer in India the first fruit comes to mind which is much awaited to enjoy is Watermelon, First I thought y not try a watermelon cupcake but then I changed my mind once this attractive cookie idea came to my mind. This is fun to make and you will surely enjoy the baking and the taste of this delectable cookie. The watermelon shaped cookie is perfect for any summer themed party or Picnic. What more can I say I just had so much fun and the outcome made every one of my friends say wowww!!! Now moving to the recipe…
