Saturday Cooking with Ykaie: DIRT CUPS

It was drizzling almost the whole day last friday when I heard about Typhoon Santi which already is signal # 3 in the provinces. I heard it’s gonna be on signal # 2 the next day saturday. So that same night, I cancelled my meetings and plan for the next day. I was thinking we were going to be stuck inside the house from morning until night time and it’s gonna be boring.

So I thought Ykaie and I should have an activity to keep us entertained.

And what could be more entertaining to a five-year-old than making some Dirt Cups she could eat?

Dirt Cups made with crushed oreos and pudding | www.thepeachkitchen.com

I remember making a Dirt Cake two years ago, in a big flower pot, complete with gummy worms and gardening props.

Since, I’ve recently started an herb garden — which is thriving at the moment – I think it’s just right that I celebrate it with Dirt Cups that looks exactly like it. Those fresh Basil stems were from my plants….which Ykaie and I went to cut before we started making the dirt cups.

The “soil” on top is made from crushed oreos. I asked Ykaie to remove the fillings from the oreos one by one and put the oreos in the food processor. Ykaie was very excited to do her task, specially since she was planning to eat the filling as she remove it all along. She was also the one who “crushed” it using the food processor — with my guidance, of course.

Below the soil is chocolate pudding, which you can either make from scratch, buy a ready-to-eat pack, or buy a pre-made mix. It’s up to you.

This is a very easy and fun thing to do with your kid(s) specially if your kid is like my Ykaie who loves anything chocolate!

This would also be a great addition on your Halloween table on the 31st.

  5. Fill ¾ of a small container with chocolate pudding. (You can use a small pot lined-up with foil or any kind of cup you want to use).
  6. The remaining ¼, you should fill with the crushed oreos.

    Wow! I actually thought these were not edible! May I know what food processor you’re getting? I’m scouting for the best one (but less expensive than Cuisinart naman) that can do grinding of nuts well.

      I’m using Kenwood. I’ve tried it grinding almonds and it works naman.

As a LACTUMama, I'm always on the lookout for acti As a LACTUMama, I'm always on the lookout for activities that will help support Twinkle's Immunity, Brain and Bones. Good thing this All Around Development Kit from @Lactum3 arrived over the week, kaya naman ito ang aming bonding activity this weekend!

Ang saya ni Twinkle because it has all the fun exercises and activities she really enjoys doing. We planted Arugula, Mustard, and Alfalfa seeds, painted the post, solved a puzzle, and played Twister. Afterwards, I made sure to give her a glass of cold Vitaminized Lactum 3+ which helps support her all-around development in Immunity, Brain and Bones with proper nutrition and stimulation.
