Cómo preparar Watermelon Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour the bottoms of two 8- or 9-inch round baking pans.
- Prepare your favorite chocolate cake batter according to package directions. Once batter is ready, gently fold in ½ cup (60g) of chocolate chips.
- In a separate bowl, dissolve 1 packet (3 oz) of strawberry or cherry-flavored drink mix into 1 cup of water. Add the dissolved drink mix to the chocolate cake batter and mix well.
- Pour batter evenly into the prepared pans.
- Bake for 27-32 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes.
- Invert cakes onto wire racks to cool completely (about 1 hour).
- While cakes cool, prepare the frosting. In a medium bowl, beat 1 cup (2 sticks) of your favorite vanilla frosting until smooth. Add 10-12 drops of green food coloring and mix until desired color is reached.
- In a separate bowl, add 10-12 drops of red food coloring to the remaining frosting and mix until desired color is reached.
- Once cakes are completely cool, slice each cake layer horizontally to create four cake halves.
- Frost the uncut sides of the cake halves with the green frosting.
- Press green jelly beans into the green frosting to create a watermelon rind effect.
- Frost the top of the assembled cake with the red frosting.
- Press the remaining 2 tablespoons (15g) of chocolate chips into the red frosting to mimic watermelon seeds.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. Cut into wedges and enjoy!
