Most of the ingredients you can probably find around your own house. If you're bored and in need of some good food, you'll love this article.

When you or your parents baked regular chocolate chip cookies, didn't you always want to eat the cookie dough? I bet sometimes you even did. Maybe you go out to get ice cream, and just your luck, they have the cookie dough ice cream.
You taste it and it's delicious, never tasted anything like it. But it's not the same. Cookie dough is too original and no replica will ever taste the same. Just imagine for a second that you can actually eat the entire batter of cookie dough, how good it would taste...
Well, you can make that fantasy come true, with a little help from Family Fresh Meals! It just takes 5 minutes and the result is scrumptious!

2. Nutella Chocolate Cake
(I wouldn't recommend this recipe for someone who hates Nutella).
This one does take longer to make, but trust me, it's worth it in the end.
Does the term Nutella Cake sound like a mouthwatering dessert? Instead of just Nutella on bread sometime or another, you make a cake literally layered in Nutella. A dream come true.
With simply 3 ingredients you can make an entire chocolate cake with plenty of time to spare. What if your relatives are over, and you need a dessert to serve but you don't want to create something that will take you hours? The solution is within your grasp thanks to my wonderful article. Nutella Cake won't be the only solution, from this list there are several desserts you can scrounge up making it look like you wasted hours on it.

One hour, that's all.
3. Rice Krispie Treats
Some holidays, my grandmother brings over to our place a big batch of Rice Krispie Treats. Our family would always finish them within two days, they're just too appetizing. Thanks to the coronavirus I haven't had any in a while.
So I took it upon myself to learn the recipe so that I didn't have to wait to taste it again. Gathered up the ingredients from our local grocery store and made it myself! Anyway, just to let you know, any plain cereal will work with this recipe.
I made it myself, licking the spatula as I went along.
It was one of the most heavenly tastes. If you don't like this recipe, then I don't know what to say. You're crazy.

4. Fudge
One word to describe it all. Fudge. Isn't exactly a pretty word but it does sum up precisely what fudge is.
Frozen chocolate with support of condensed milk to keep it together. Simple, but yet, can act professionally when served on trays or racks. What I've always loved about fudge is how in some Google images, it looks so smooth and delicate, almost satisfying. Only someone truly passionate about baking would have the patience to make it so even and satisfying to the human eye.

Personally, I prefer the Cookies 'n' Cream Fudge, so I thought I would put it in also: https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/77307/cookies-n-creme-fudge/ .
5. Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream
Can't buy it at the grocery store? Make it yourself! It's easy and flavourful! You might be wondering: Ice cream recipes are complicated, I can't make one myself.
You're just pondering this because when you research ice cream recipes, it comes up at the top with all these complicated recipes that would take you longer than necessary. I have found one that will take you barely over 15 minutes of your time and you've got your dessert after dinner prepared quicker than you can say ice cream. Half and half cream might not be as effortless to gather but you can figure something out!
I actually received this recipe from a school assignment online, once I completed it I started to use this recipe more frequently because it did taste somewhat similar to real ice cream. After that, I just researched it online and found it. This just proves that school assignments aren't all bad.

I suggest that you shake the bag a little longer than required and that you add a dash more of vanilla so that it tastes more like vanilla ice cream.
6. Oatmeal Cookie Recipe
With the right recipe, oatmeal cookies can taste delectable. I used to think that oatmeal cookies were just chocolate chip cookies minus the chocolate chips. I went off saying that it's the same, but it's not.
Without chocolate chips, cookies aren't as savory as they may appear. For oatmeal, you need basically the same ingredients but with a few adjustments.
Such a dessert is beloved by many; it's rare that you find an oatmeal cookie hater. Their club doesn't have many members.
Out of this list, my favorite has got to be the classic oatmeal cookies. Especially the ones straight out of the oven. You know when the center of it is still gooey when they're so hot your fingers burned by the touch. That's when they taste the most like the cookies they are.
These cookies will become your new favorite once you taste them
