Betty Crocker Bake Off

Is it really a Bake Off if you're using the microwave??

Ok, so its Friday night, and I'm craving a chocolate dessert. About a month ago, I found this little treasure in the grocery store by Betty Crocker... called Warm Delights Minis. And my son and I decided to try them. With two microwaves, it's obviously going to become a "showdown". So, we opened up the package, and they come complete with everything! A small bowl. A small package of cake mix, and equally small package of caramel. And we laugh as we open these miniature portions ...................

"It's like an Easy Bake Oven thing!!"

Pouring the cake mix into the mini bowl, we add our tablespoon plus teaspoon of water. and stir.

Squeeze caramel packet 10 times. (yes, ten, not six, eight or twelve!)

Cut a corner off the caramel packet, and squirt over the top of the chocolatey goo in the bowl.

Place in microwave for 30 seconds (or until it looks dry ... huh?)

Push start !!

And we watch the cake puff ..... and cook ....... and pulse .

~DING~

Wait two minutes for it to cool ..... * tap * tap * tap * (waiting is the hardest part!)

And now.. the taste test .... fork into the fluffy chocolate cake, the caramel warm and goooey... OooOOooOOooOoo yes, this is yummy. This passes the taste test in our household as a temporary fix to that chocolate craving thing.....

HUGS to everyone!
