AMAZING!! Light and rich at the same time. I baked this for a BBQ and everyone loved it. I used pre-made cream cheese frosting and added a little watermelon juice and a little gelatin for flavor and color. Definitely a hit with our guests. Thank you!

Cake was yummy. I used Watermelon flavored gelatin. Also, used about 1 1/4 c. powdered sugar, instead of 2 cups. Hardest part is cutting up the watermelon.
