MyPlate Teaching 🥗
This is a treat—not an everyday fuel food. Enjoying a single-serve dessert can actually support balance by preventing overeating later. Portion awareness matters.
E = Eating 🍽️
How to Prepare
• Add 1 tablespoon water
• STIR VERY WELL (tilt the cup—dry batter likes to hide at the bottom)
• Microwave 30 seconds
• Let sit 2 minutes before eating (lava alert 🔥)
Taste
Soft, sweet, and comforting. Chocolate melts beautifully and gives classic cookie flavor.
Texture
• Smooth
• Not crumbly
• Gooey but set (add 5–7 seconds if center is too soft for your liking)
Confession: I finished it…and immediately wanted another. That’s the data.
A = Accessibility 🛒

💓 Tachycardia
This was originally a Sinus Rhythm, but after actually eating it?
Upgraded. Immediately. No hesitation.
T = Tell Others & Tips 📣
Helpful Tip
Stir more than you think you need to. Dry batter at the bottom = disappointment.
Why I Recommend This
• Easy, fast, and satisfying
• Great to keep on hand for guests with Celiac or food allergies
• Sealed packaging allows the person with allergies to prepare it themselves—reducing cross-contamination stress
Thank you, Mom, for bringing safe snacks and love 💛
Safe, happy, healthy.
