Recipe Comments and Reviews Sort by: Reviews General Comments View All » Rating These cookies took a while to get the hang of, but once we did, my mom and I couldn't stop making them. They're adorable and yummy! Very worth the effort. Posted March 21, 2014 by Nicole Rating Very crumbly, and didn't look much like watermelons even after adding food coloring. Not necessarily a bad recipe, but not one I'll make again when there are so many better cookies to make. Posted November 25, 2011 by Klayter M.
