This recipe is great if you want to bring a homemade dessert to a friend’ house or potluck. There are only a few ingredients and the directions are super straightforward.

These are great if you don’t like overly sweet brownies. Most brownies can be a bit temperamental but these are one of the best easy dessert recipes. They’re super moist and yummy. I have only one warning. There are not a lot of steps which makes this an easy dessert recipe for beginners but watch the video and add the ingredients in the order that the chef does because they cook differently if the butter is added too soon.

Recipe by Giada de Laurentiis. She’s easily one of my favorite cooks because her dishes are simple and relatively healthy. I like this Italian dessert because it’s super easy to make and everyone loves it. It’s a great dessert if you’re having a few friends over or a family gathering.
This is a French-style tart that looks more daunting than it is. There are only a few ingredients and prep time is really quick. I like making this in the fall when apples are in season.

If you like chocolate chips, this is the recipe for you. It makes a pan of brownies that you can cut any size you need for how many people you’re serving.
