My Cup Runneth Over: WATERMELON OREO POKE CUPCAKES

WATERMELON OREO POKE CUPCAKES

Hey There!

It seems I can't leave well enough alone.  There are so many different flavor of Oreos out right now and they are calling my name.  The rainbow sherbet Oreo series I did was very fun, so when I saw Watermelon Oreos at Target I felt the need to try something else.

I may turn into an Oreo after all the fun I have had creating recipes surrounding the newly released flavors!  This one did not disappoint!! I was searching for something to make for dessert for the 4th of July and this popped into my head.

Watermelon Oreo Poke Cupcakes with Whipped Frosting.  YUM.
They are so light and refreshing with the icing.  Plus, I just love a cold cupcake.  I have no idea why, but I would rather have cake cold.  I know, the weirdness of me continues.  lol.
Here's how easy they were to make!

Watermelon Oreo Poke Cupcakes
1 package white cake mix (and ingredients called for on the box)
1 package watermelon jello (and ingredients called for on the box)

Frosting:
1 8oz. package cream cheese, softened
2 cups marshmallow fluff
1 8oz. container cool whip

Place cupcakes wrappers in pan and place 1 Oreo in the bottom of each opening.  Mix cake mix per directions on the box.  Add batter over the Oreos in the pan filling each almost to the top. Bake per cake mix instructions and make sure to test to see if it is done.  

After the cupcakes are cooled, make jello according to package instructions. Poke holes, using a skewer in each cupcake. Carefully pour a tablespoon of jello into the top of each cupcake. Refrigerate 3 hours or overnight.

To make the frosting, beat together the cream cheese and the marshmallow. Fold in cool whip until combined.  Refrigerate until chilled.  Add to cupcakes and refrigerate until re-chilled.  ENJOY!
I also added some watermelon candies just for fun.  They tasted great, not overpowering with watermelon, but just enough.  The cookie stayed crunchy and didn't turn soggy.  So yummy!

I hope you all have a fantastic week!! Thanks for stopping by!
