TTT 1 Min. Micro Cake Dessert

Have you all seen these?












They're Warm Delights by Betty Crocker. They're quick (3 minutes) and delicious, although, that's a matter of opinion but I like them and so do my clients so that's all that matters.

They're also pricey.

Thanks to tangeemct at the Grocery Game I now have an inexpensive TTT (tummy tempting tasty) recipe and a new kitchen activity for clients with just about all levels of dementia.

Ok are you ready?

Get a box of cake mix. Any kind will do.

Get a Tablespoon.

Get a teaspoon.

Get out the Mayo.

Get a small microwave safe bowl or crock.
You can do all the measuring and have your client do the stirring or .... you can ....

Have your client measure out 4 Tablespoons of the cake mix into the micro safe bowl.

Have your client measure 2 Tablespoons of good old H2O into the bowl with the cake mix.

Have your client measure one heaping teaspoon of Mayo into the bowl.

Mix well. Mix again. Mix until all the dry ingredients are wet. Scrape the bottom to get some of that hidden powder.

Pop that bowl right into the microwave and cook on high for one minute.

Be careful it's HOT!

It's also done.

You can add chocolate chips, nuts or whatever you want do the mix to make it more yummy. You can also add frosting, powdered sugar, chocolate syrup or ice cream toppings after it's done to make it even more yummy.

If you find it a little too wet after the one minute you can pop it in for another 10 seconds and continue cooking at 10 second invervals until it's done.

You'll have enough cake mix left over for many wonderful TTT desserts for days to come.

There really isn't much time to reminisce or encourage socialization while making this dessert but there'll be plenty of time to do both while enjoying the dessert with a big glass of milk! Enjoy!
