Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup old fashioned oats or you an use 1/2 pack of Better Oats for even lower numbers!
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 a Flapjacked double chocolate mighty muffin
  • 3 tbs water I've found different muffin batches to be different so play around with your water amount.. you want it a little thicker than cake batter.
  • 1 tsp cocoa powder skip if you don't like dark chocolate and prefer things sweeter
  • 1/2- 1 dropper vanilla stevia
  • Your favorite ice cream I used 75 g Halo Top peanut butter cup PLUS 75 g Dreyers Slow churned Coffee
  • 6 tbs Fat free whipped cream 15g
  • Mini Chocolate Chips 3 g
  • Toffee Bits 3 g

Instructions

  • Stir together 1/4 cup oats with 1/4 cup water in a microwave safe bowl and heat on hight for 2 minutes
  • Weigh or split your Flapjacked Double Chocolate Mighty Muffin in half and save half in a small ziplock for tomorrow.
  • Into the cardboard cup with the mix remaining, add 3 tbs water, 1/2 dropper of vanilla stevia, 1 tsp of cocoa powder, and already cooked oats. Stir.
  • Add a little more water if it's too thick.  You want it to be like cake batter consistency.
  • Microwave for 35-40 seconds depending on your microwave. You want it to look pretty done but have a little moisture on top still. If you like it more done, let it sit for a couple of minutes or heat for another ten seconds.  If you like it underdone like me, dump into a bowl.*  It will be somewhere between souffle, gooey brownie, or maybe a baked chocolate oatmeal? I just know it's good. Call it whatever you want.
  • Top with your favorite ice cream! The macros below are for my bowl with 150 grams of ice cream as described in the ingredients. (Full disclosure, I usually do 200 grams!)
  • *UPDATE-- recently I've used half of a "maple brown sugar better oats" for even lower numbers. I don't cook it ahead, just stir it all together with enough water to be slightly thicker or similar to cake batter, and microwave for 40-45 seconds.

Notes

  • *If it looks TOO runny, I'll leave some of the runnier parts in the cup and heat for another ten seconds and then add it to the bowl-- OR heat the bowl for 10 more seconds.  It's totally forgiving and just gets fudgier in this process so don't stress about getting it just right in that first 40 seconds! Better to err under.
