Inspired by a Scottish recipe, these shortbread cookies are delicious with a good cup of coffee or a glass of milk. To make them, press the dough into a loaf pan, then remove it from the pan so that each cookie has straight, smooth edges. The 5 ingredients and 15-minute prep time will require just a moment of thinking over before you dive into making this recipe.

6-Ingredient Apple Cake
We could say that this cake is the apple version of banana bread. Not too sweet, it’s the perfect afternoon snack. A generous quantity of apples are used both inside the cake and as toppings. With just the right acidity, Cortland apples also soften nicely once cooked.

No-Churn Vanilla Ice Cream
To make traditional ice cream, you need an ice cream maker—but not for this recipe! Simply stir together whipped cream with sweetened condensed milk. The high sugar and fat content in this type of milk prevents the creation of ice crystals. Leave it to freeze for a few hours in the freezer, then serve it in a pretty bowl.

3-Ingredient Dark Chocolate Mousse
To make this chocolate mousse, you’ll need only three ingredients, plus a little elbow grease to beat the eggs until the mixture forms a ribbon, i.e., until they’ve gained volume. Incorporate melted chocolate at the very end to create a dense mousse. Pour the mixture into ramekins and leave them in the fridge for a little weeknight treat.

Microwave Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies
Happiness is a moist, super chocolatey cookie fresh out of the oven—the microwave oven, that is! Yep, we’ve developed a cookie recipe that can be made in a single bowl and that bakes in 30 seconds. The chocolate-hazelnut spread already has all the sugar and oil necessary for the cookies to hold together, so all you need to do is add milk, baking powder and flour for a practically instant dessert!

Jam Jalousie
Puff pastry, jam and a little sugar come together in this pretty turnover, called “jalousie” in French. This expression comes from a type of window shutter, “gelosia,” which originated in Italy and whose openings can be adjusted to allow one to look out without being seen. The slits in the dough are reminiscent of these shutters. No doubt your colleagues will be jealous when they see your dessert at lunchtime.

Fall Plum Cocktail
It’s plum season and they’re the stars of the syrup in this smooth cocktail. Mix it with aquavit, a Scandinavian alcohol similar to gin, and a dash of lemon for a hint of freshness. It’s like having one foot in summer and one foot in sweater season just around the corner!

Blueberry Muffins (The Best)
These muffins offer the best of both worlds: the moistness of cake and the heartiness of a snack. The soft cereal dough is combined with homemade buttermilk and the sweet, concentrated taste of a generous quantity of blueberries. The ideal balance of flavours and textures to satisfy the munchies.
