Do you want a nice cool refreshing desert that is sure to please?Than you should give this watermelon cake a try. Everyone that I’ve served this cake to, has said they loved it.

I linked up with

Confessions of a Mother Runner

and

A Whisk & Two Wands

for meatless Monday.

Be sure to check out the other wonderful recipes.

You will need.
One seedless watermelon
Some heavy whipping cream or cool whip
One can of whipped cream optional
Berries of your choice
Sliced almonds optional

1. Put your cake plate into the refrigerator, so it will be cold. This will help the whipped cream not to melt to quickly.
2. Cut the ends off your watermelon, so it will be flat on both ends.
3. Now cut off the rinds, don’t worry if it’s not perfect the whipped cream will help cover slight imperfections. Please use a longer knife than I used this time. When I made this before I used a longer knife and it looked much better.
4. Now make sure you have it flat so it won’t look lopsided.
   Let it set for a few minutes so the some of the watermelon juicy will drain.
5. Whip your whipped cream or just get your whipped topping out.
6. Take a paper towel and dry your watermelon and place it on your cooled cake plate.
7. Now frost the watermelon with the whipped cream completely, just like you would a cake.
8. Arrange your berries on top and put the almonds on the sides.
9. To finish it use the can of whipped cream and go around the top of the cake and the bottom.
10. Quickly place it into the refrigerator until time to serve.
11. Use a sharpe knife to cut your watermelon cake and serve, it’s sure to be loved, enjoy!

Grandma Ruby’s Fudge

Do you want the best fudge around? Than you should try my Grandma’s, It just doesn’t feel like Christmas without it. She would make so much of it,the kitchen counters would be full of pans and boxes full of that amazing fudge. She gave it to everyone, believe me they were happy to receive it.

You will need

• 4 cups sugar
• ½ pound butter
• 1- 12 ounce can evaporated milk
• 2- 12 ounce packages of chocolate chips( any flavor)
• 1-7 ounce marshmallow cream
• 1 cup of nuts if you like
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

First you need to butter the pan you are going to pour the fudge in after it’s cooked.

Now open your packages of chocolate chips and the marshmallow cream, because you’ll need to be able to add them quickly.

Next you need to put the sugar, butter and the evaporated milk into the pan.

You need to cook it on high heat stirring constantly until it reaches the soft ball stage. A candy thermoter is a great help, it will ensure you cook it correctly.

After it reaches the soft ball stage remove the pan from heat. Now add the chocolate chips, marshmallow cream, nuts if you want and vanilla.

Now you stir vigorously.

Keep stirring.

Stir until it starts to lose its shine and your arm is so tired you don’t think you can stir anymore.

Pour into your buttered pan and let cool completely. Now you see all those who wouldn’t help stir want to come in and get a spoon full of what is left in the pan.

This will make about 4 pounds of fudge, enjoy.

If you want to share with others you love all you need to do, is after it’s completely cool, cut and wrap the fudge.

Then put it into some pretty packages and spread the joy.

Hope you try this fudge, I’m sure you’ll love it as we have been for years. You may have family and friends asking for it next year.

Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!
