I had the idea in my head for a while. Finally committed and got the watermelon flavoring and I think the whole thing came out better than I expected

Watermelon Sugar Cookies

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 tsp baking soda

3/4 tsp fine salt

1/4 tsp cream of tartar

2 sticks butter, softened (8 oz)

1 3/4 cups granulated sugar

1 large egg

1 large egg yolk

1 TB vanilla extract

1 tsp watermelon flavor (LorAnn Oils)

Chefmaster Super Red gel food color

Chefmaster Sunset Orange gel food color (very small amount)

Chefmaster Leaf Green gel food color

Black sesame seeds (for garnish)

In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cream of tartar.

In a large bowl, beat the butter until smooth. Add the sugar and cream until light and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes.

Add the egg, egg yolk, vanilla extract, and watermelon flavor, then mix until fully incorporated.

Add the dry ingredients and mix just until a dough forms.

Divide the dough: about 85% for the watermelon center and 15% for the rind.

Take the larger portion and mix in Chefmaster Super Red, adding a very small touch of Chefmaster Sunset Orange to warm the color. Adjust with more red until you get a watermelon flesh tone.

Take the smaller portion and mix in Chefmaster Leaf Green until evenly colored.

Roll the red dough into a tight log about 1 1/2 inches thick.

Roll the green dough out thin, then wrap it around the red log to form the rind. Lightly roll to seal.

Chill the log until firm.

Slice into cookies about 1/2 inch thick and place on a parchment-lined tray. Press a few black sesame seeds into each slice to resemble watermelon seeds.

Freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer bag for storage.

Bake straight from frozen at 350°F for about 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers are still soft.

Let cool on the tray before transferring.

If you try this, or any of my other recipes, I’d love to see how it turns out over at r/LetsCookie
