For the Creamy Layer
- 4 oz Cream cheese, softened

Instructions
Preparation
- Slice the watermelon into rounds, about 1 inch thick, then cut each round into wedges like a pizza.
- Pat the top surface dry with paper towels to help the creamy layer stick.
- Mix the creamy topping by blending the softened cream cheese with the Greek yogurt and honey until smooth.

Notes
