Let’s talk Quarantine Treats….
I think we all can agree that quarantine has inspired lots of people to make things from scratch and test out new recipes because of all of this new free time. Baking is a great way to clear your mind during this stressful time and can brighten your family’s day. I have included some favorite recipes I have found during this time that are super fun and straightforward to follow. Enjoy!
Chocolate Cake in a MUG from The Food Network (Takes five minutes)
I have tried this recipe a few times for my family, and they LOVE it!
It tastes so moist and takes barely any time.
A super fun way to spice up a regular cake!

Banana Bread From TheKitchn.com (who doesn't love warm banana bread?!)
Banana Bread is always one of my “go-to” homemade treats that satisfies me for breakfast, a snack, or even a dessert.
Best served warm.

For those chocolate lovers, this is for you!
