Dessert in MINUTES
If you’re looking for a quick and easy dessert that you can make in minutes, here are a few ideas:
- Fresh Fruit Salad: Chop up a variety of your favorite fruits such as strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, pineapple, and grapes. Toss them together in a bowl and squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the top for a refreshing and healthy dessert.
- Banana Ice Cream: Peel and slice a ripe banana, then freeze the slices for about an hour. Once frozen, blend the banana slices in a food processor or blender until smooth and creamy. You can add a splash of milk or a spoonful of peanut butter for extra flavor if desired.
- Microwave Mug Cake: In a microwave-safe mug, mix together 4 tablespoons of flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder, 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder, a pinch of salt, 3 tablespoons of milk, and 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes until the cake is cooked through. Top with whipped cream or ice cream if desired.
- Yogurt Parfait: Layer Greek yogurt with granola and your favorite fruits in a glass or bowl. Drizzle with honey or maple syrup for sweetness. You can also add a sprinkle of cinnamon or a dash of vanilla extract for extra flavor.
- Chocolate-Dipped Strawberries: Melt some chocolate chips in the microwave or over a double boiler. Dip fresh strawberries into the melted chocolate, then place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet to set. You can also sprinkle crushed nuts or coconut flakes over the chocolate before it hardens.
- No-Bake Cookies: Mix together 1 cup of quick oats, 1/2 cup of peanut butter, 1/4 cup of honey or maple syrup, and 1/4 cup of chocolate chips in a bowl. Roll the mixture into small balls and place them on a plate. Chill in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before serving.
- Fruit and Cheese Platter: Arrange slices of your favorite fruits such as apples, pears, and grapes on a plate alongside slices of cheese such as cheddar or brie. Serve with crackers or crusty bread for a quick and satisfying dessert.
These desserts are simple to make and require minimal ingredients and effort, perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth in minutes!
