Pinterest may have been the best invention of all time. By now, most of you have an account, and I would love if you would follow mine. I pin healthy recipes, workouts, home-decor, fitness fashion and of course anything I think I will need to keep my future babies alive. Some pins out there get pinned hundreds, even thousands of times, and there is a reason for that. Either the recipe is delicious, the blog post is super useful, the outfit is AMAZE or a photo is just Really. Freaking. Cool.
I love looking for quick/healthy recipes that will satisfy even the smallest of cravings. Lately I have had a massive sweet tooth, and I will let you in on a little known secret…Lindt milk chocolate truffles are my weakness. I pop one or two a week, and that is plenty enough sweet stuff for me. I usually crave salty foods, not sweet, but some days I have the need for the type of quick sugary fix that my fruit salad simply will not cure. Over the past couple of years I had to stop baking Funfetti cupcakes for my hubs because I would end up eating more than my fair share. Who doesn’t love anything Funfetti? So when I saw that there was a Funfetti Dip pinned over and over and over again I knew that it had to be good, and when I realized it only had three simple ingredients…I had to give it a try for myself!
My first debate on aisle three was what cake color to choose because all that was left at the grocery store was neon Funetti. First of all, I was going to eat boxed cake mix, and now was unfortunately going to be artificially colored boxed cake mix. I chose neon yellow and convinced myself that it was the most natural color. Up next I grabbed plain non-fat yogurt, light Cool Whip and rainbow sprinkles, (which are optional)headed on home and got right to work.
In a medium bowl I mixed together:
1 Box of Funfetti Mix
2 Cups Plain Non-Fat Yogurt
1 1/2 Cups low fat cool whip
Now the hard part…
Cover and Refrigerate for 4 Hours!!!
Top with sprinkles and serve with something equally yummy. I found awesome organic teddy grahams, and they were the perfect compliment to this yummy, birthday cake-cake-cake dip. My godson and cousins are coming to visit very soon, and I think if I make this for them cousin Tay is going to get lots of cuddles and kisses!
As stated earlier I did not invent this dip..I pinned it, and I hope you do too! It rocks and something magical happens within those four hours of setting-time. Enjoy this dip at your next BBQ or Celebration. Speaking of celebrations we have a lot to celebrate this week…Americas Birthday, The amazing Misty Copeland beating all odds and becoming the first African American principle dancer for American Ballet Theatre…oh! and cheese. We can always celebrate cheese.
Let me know what you think!
