Pratique du Shadowing: I Tested the LAZIEST TikTok DESSERT Recipes! 🥱 - Apprendre l'anglais à l'oral avec la vidéo
Création de la leçon...
1
That cinnamon roll only took 90 seconds to make.
2
Let's do it.
3
Because I'm lazy.
4
She starts by mixing an egg, some melted butter, and vanilla extract into a ramekin.
5
I love a good cinnamon roll, but usually it takes way too long to make.
6
But she also said she was able to lose 100 pounds making desserts like this.
7
So she uses almond flour.
8
Baking powder to give it that rise.
9
Cinnamon, because duh.
10
And then a little bit of sugar.
11
She mixes it again.
12
And then she tops it with this brown sugar cinnamon mixture.
13
I'm gonna try to do it in like a swirly pattern.
14
Good enough.
15
And now we just cook it for 90 seconds in the microwave.
16
So in the meantime, she also makes a cream cheese frosting.
17
All she does is add a little bit of cream cheese, sweetener, and a splash of almond milk.
18
She adds the cream cheese frosting to a piping bag.
19
And then make a little swirly on top.
20
It's giving Cinnabon vibes.
21
But does this actually taste good?
22
Because someone said she was not lying about this.
23
It slaps where someone else said mine tasted like eggs.
24
A little bit eggy, but it's super fluffy, and you do get that hint of brown sugar cinnamon in there.
25
8 out of 10, but I have 9 more lazy dessert recipes, and they just keep getting lazier and lazier.
26
This next dessert uses only 2 ingredients, and the creator says if you blend water and chocolate, you can create light, fluffy, airy chocolate mousse.
27
But like oil and water, I'm not sure chocolate chips and water works.
28
Wouldn't it just split into goop and water?
29
Someone else said, I don't know about this one.
30
I don't like watered down hot chocolate, and this sounds like that.
31
But now she says to blend it for two minutes, and I'm using my highest powered blender here.
32
Oh my gosh, it's hot.
33
I don't know about chocolate mousse, but I definitely have chocolate soup.
34
But now she pours it into a bowl.
35
The consistency is fairly smooth, if not a little bubbly.
36
I'm still skeptical because someone said I fell for this.
37
24 hours later and it's just runny chocolate goop.
38
So while that's chilling, now we have what this creator calls summer's best treat.
39
And instead of dipping your strawberries in chocolate, we're just gonna drizzle it right on top with something else.
40
So she starts by cutting her strawberries in half, lines them in like a little trio.
41
That's so cute.
42
They're like the perfect little strawberry cluster flower.
43
She drizzles over some melted chocolate and some melted almond butter.
44
And it kind of reminds me of those strawberry covered chocolate in a bowl from last year.
45
I wonder how many view counts that has now.
46
Oh, I was thinking that almond butter didn't need to be melted, but it looks like it does.
47
It doesn't win any beauty points, but.
48
And now we sprinkle it with a little bit of sea salt.
49
Now she says to chill it for about 15 minutes until the chocolate and the almond butter firms up.
50
So the chocolate has firmed up completely, and I just noticed something.
51
They firmed up to look like little hearts.
52
This is so cute.
53
And then the back side of it, it's pretty too.
54
Someone said they did this and it tastes so good
55
and I don't think they're lying because you can't go wrong with strawberry covered chocolate.
56
10 out of 10.
57
This next one gives us all the brownie and the bites without the baking and it only takes five minutes.
58
But he starts by adding some flour to a bowl.
59
Everyone got mad and said it's raw flour.
60
It's not good for your stomach.
61
Please don't eat raw flour, lol.
62
And someone else said, can someone explain why everyone is saying to bake the flour first?
63
I'm from Finland and I don't understand.
64
Well, to the creator's defense, he did have text that said heat treated.
65
It basically just means cooking up your flour to 165 degrees so that it kills all the bacteria.
66
I guess you can microwave it too if you're feeling extra lazy.
67
The flour did take on a little brownish tint, but it just adds a little bit of nuttiness to the brownies.
68
So now we add some cocoa powder, sugar, melted butter, and a little bit of milk.
69
Oh, it's starting to come together.
70
Someone said that hers became a gloopy mess, but I think mine is looking pretty good.
71
Okay, now he scoops it into little dough balls and finally dusts it in some powdered sugar.
72
They remind me of little cake pops minus the pop. So cute.
73
He said that you can make five dough balls with this, but I was able to stretch it to six.
74
The powdered sugar basically just melts into the brownie bite.
75
It looks pretty good.
76
But someone said, future me, was it good?
77
Let me answer that for you.
78
Oh yeah.
79
Are you kidding me?
80
The best part about the brownie is the edge.
81
But since we can't get that, the next best thing is that gooey center.
82
And this is just the perfect consistency.
83
And it has a little bit of nuttiness in it.
84
This is probably the best lazy dessert so far.
85
Nine out of 10.
86
Nothing is more comforting than a fruit pie, except pies take forever.
87
And I'm feeling kind of lazy.
88
So this is a blueberry crumble, which is a cousin of a blueberry pie.
89
But she starts with a bowl of frozen blueberries.
90
Then she adds a little bit of cornstarch and lemon juice.
91
Someone asked, what does cornstarch do?
92
To which someone else said, thicken the juices from the blueberry, just so it's not super watery.
93
This brings out the flavor and brightness of the blueberries.
94
I have to make sure the cornstarch coats all the blueberries.
95
Now we have to microwave it for a minute.
96
So while that's cooking, we're gonna make our crumble topping.
97
She adds in some oats, a little bit of vanilla whey protein for health and sweetness, some cinnamon, honey, a pinch of salt, and a little bit of water.
98
Gotta get it nice and crumbly.
99
The blueberries after a minute are not quite cooked through yet, but now we have to add our oat crumble on top and then microwave it for another minute.
100
Whoa.
101
This looks like a real blueberry pie thing, except now she takes it up to a whole nother level, adds a dollop of Greek yogurt, a sprinkle of cinnamon.
102
Someone says she added vanilla ice cream and it tasted exactly like a blueberry cobbler.
103
There's like a pool of blueberry juice at the bottom.
104
So I feel like we need a little more cornstarch for that.
105
But someone said, I've been making this for breakfast ever since I saw the video, and I'm in love.
106
It's a little watery.
107
Does it taste like a blueberry cobbler?
108
No. Does it taste more like a blueberry oatmeal?
109
Yes.
110
But I think we've tried better lazy dessert hacks.
111
6 out of 10.
112
Now we have a classic dessert lazy style.
113
It's actually kind of healthy too, but this creator starts by adding some Greek yogurt to a blender's cup, And then some whipped cottage cheese.
114
Someone said, stop, this looks so yum.
115
I didn't know whipped cottage cheese was a thing.
116
But as far as I'm concerned, whipped cottage cheese is the only way to eat cottage cheese.
117
Shoot, I messed up.
118
She actually adds the Greek yogurt into a bowl.
119
I got confused because somebody said I made this as a fluffy yogurt.
120
Actually though, fluffy yogurt and fluffy cottage cheese might be a new thing.
121
It's so thick and creamy.
122
I'm kind of loving this texture.
123
It looks very thick and pudding-like.
124
But now she says depending on how sweet you like the pudding, you can add in two to three tablespoons of this vanilla pudding mix.
125
And this is optional, but then we can add some vanilla bean paste.
126
She says the vanilla bean is supposed to make it taste like a bakery-style pudding.
127
Finally, she adds in some banana slices and vanilla wafers.
128
Where's my banana chopping tool when I need it?
129
The pudding powder is making it turn really yellow.
130
And now it looks like a very creamy pudding.
131
I feel like I could just eat this straight up like this.
132
Now she transfers it into another servable bowl, adds some banana slices, and sprinkles over some more cookie crumbs.
133
So this would be how she serves it after it's chilled.
134
She said if you have no self-control like her, she would just eat it right away.
135
And since this looks so good, I'm gonna try it right now.
136
Does this make anyone else have a weird teeth feeling?
137
Like it's too sweet?
138
This might be my new favorite dessert or breakfast.
139
That was so good.
140
It's sweet.
141
It has a banana-y flavor.
142
I'm gonna go ahead and give this a 9 out of 10.
143
This creator says if you have five minutes, this might just be the easiest mango mochi hack ever.
144
Because she starts off by wetting some rice paper.
145
Isn't rice paper salty?
146
I feel like it's more neutral.
147
Puts it on top of a bowl.
148
While it softens, I'm gonna peel my mango.
149
And it looks like she cuts hers into pretty good chunks.
150
Perfect timing, because the rice paper is soft, but now it's sticking to my bowl.
151
Let me just unpeel it.
152
Oh, man.
153
But now she sprays in some canned whipped cream.
154
Love it.
155
Adds her mango chum.
156
Whist it into a ball.
157
And then she freezes it for 15 minutes.
158
Oh, and look at that.
159
It's like a little dumpling.
160
Someone else said trying this, but with strawberry.
161
I feel like that would be so good.
162
But you know what?
163
I do feel like this recipe is easy.
164
But let's see if it's easy enough for a kid to make.
165
Can I have mango chumstrum?
166
Oh, baby.
167
So we have three little mochi purses here.
168
Let's freeze it for 15 minutes and see if it actually tastes like mochi.
169
It's done freezing and it's cold, but it's not very hard.
170
So I definitely think that it's biteable.
171
But I think we need to call in a taste tester for this.
172
Do you want to try the one you made?
173
Yeah.
174
Cheers.
175
The rice paper is pretty chewy
176
and the part where you had to cut it off is so thick and then the whipped cream is kinda gloopy.
177
I can see this getting kinda messy.
178
This is the perfect dessert when you're craving something kinda sweet but feeling kinda lazy.
179
It's not just a banana.
180
We're gonna do things to it.
181
Okay, so I'm gonna slice my banana down lengthwise.
182
This part is kinda tricky.
183
Oh, what?
184
Someone said leaving the peel on is insane, but the peel just acts as our shell or our cup for this dessert.
185
Now we're gonna cover each half of the banana with a little bit of honey, Top it with a little bit of cinnamon, some chopped peanuts, chocolate chips, and then a drizzle of peanut butter.
186
Now we're gonna drop it into the air fryer basket and cook it for 10 minutes at 350 degrees.
187
And it's ready.
188
Ooh, it's toasty.
189
My question is, how do you eat this?
190
But someone said, I usually wouldn't go for a banana as a dessert, but dang.
191
And someone else said, see, the problem with me is that I would eat 10 of these in one sitting.
192
The banana is so soft.
193
Now that's a banana split.
194
At first bite, I didn't love it.
195
But then it kind of grew on me.
196
Like the banana's kind of soft and mushy.
197
And then combined with the kind of burnt but melted chocolate chips.
198
And then the peanut butter comes in.
199
It's like, I don't know how to feel.
200
7 out of 10.
201
Is it a mousse or is it a mess?
202
I want to see if it really did separate like someone said.
203
What?
204
So you get a mousse layer on top with chocolate flavored water at the bottom.
205
I was lied to.
206
I didn't realize this was a rage bait recipe.
207
Not good.
208
One out of ten.
209
But if you're still looking for that chocolate mousse pudding, I found another lazy recipe that uses an avocado.
210
And only five ingredients.
211
So hopefully this one turns out a little bit better than the last one.
212
All you have to do is add some cocoa powder.
213
Same amount of maple syrup.
214
She calls for non-dairy milk.
215
I'm using almond.
216
A little bit of vanilla extract.
217
And a pinch of salt.
218
Someone said, my oh my.
219
We love getting avocado as a sweet treat.
220
To which the creator said, yes, the secret nutritious ingredient.
221
All right, let's see what we have here.
222
Oh, it looks like chocolate pudding.
223
She tops hers with a little bit of whipped cream and chocolate shaving.
224
Not gonna lie, this looks like a pretty amazing dessert.
225
Does this taste good?
226
Tell me honestly, because if I wasted whole avocado, I'm coming for you.
227
I'm not gonna lie, it does taste like avocado.
228
Sweet avocado.
229
7 out of 10.
230

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
