6 tablespoons unsalted butter 16 ounces miniature marshmallows, divided 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 6 cups rice krispy cereal red food coloring green food coloring chocolate chips
Line 2 round cake pans with parchment paper.
In a saucepan, melt the butter. Add miniature marshmallows, leaving out 1 cup. Stir until marshmallows are melted. Add vanilla and mix well.
In a large mixing bowl, mix together the melted marshmallow mix and rice krispy cereal. Stir in the last cup of marshmallows and mix well.
Divide the krispy mixtures into 2 separate mixing bowls. Tint one with green food coloring and the other with red food coloring.
Starting with the green rice krispy mixture, layer it around the outside of the cake pan from earlier. This will act as the rind of the watermelon.
Fill in the center with the red rice krispy mixture. Press lightly into the pan to form the watermelon together.
Gently press chocolate chips into the the red rice krispy mixture. These will act as your watermelon seeds.
Repeat steps 5-7 using your other cake pan from earlier. Let these sit for about an hour to fully set. Enjoy!
