Watermelon Cookies image

Cookies that look like slices of watermelon! Much less complicated than they look. Kids love to help with and eat these. Really cute for 4th of July or other summer party. From Pillsbury, I think. I have used mini chocolate chips or chopped chocolate chips rather than chopped baking chocolate; you could probably also use small pieces of raisins for seeds.
