3 Ingredient, 5 Minute Fudge

Yes, this fudge is really that easy to make. The only sugar in it comes from the chocolate you use so you can control the level and type of sugar you use based on the chocolate you select. I was almost going to call it 2 ingredient fudge and you’ll see why when you look at that short ingredients list!

Mini Banana and Macadamia Upside Down Cake

This cake is cooked entirely in a skillet because apparently that’s how I like to dessert. The main reason is because I didn’t want to make a cake to serve a party, I wanted it to be small… like 4 serves. And the easiest way to do that (if you don’t have a tiny cake tin) is to make it in a skillet. So here we are, another skillet dessert. You’re welcome.

Strawberry, Lemon and Basil Friands

So these don’t look like friands because I’m an uncommitted baker and don’t owne the moulds. But guess what? you don’t need them to make these delicious treats, they work just as well in lined muffin tins.

7 Christmas Party Worthy Desserts That Are Also Good For You

I totally get that Christmas is a time of indulgence for all of us and I am by no means suggesting you overhaul your whole Christmas tradition and make it a ‘healthy’ Christmas because Christmas isn’t unhealthy, it’s a time to celebrate with your loved ones and share traditions, gifts and food. It’s not a time to be worrying about calories. Then again I don’t think any day is a day to worry about calories! That said, you can include a few things that are a little lighter to mix things up, lighter but still super delicious and this little collection ticks those boxes big time. From gluten free, to dairy free, to just wholesome there’s something for everyone,
