Single Serving Fruity Pebbles Marshmallow Treat

Sometimes people tell me I”m creative.

Well, I know for sure my mom tells me that.

I”m not so much creative as I am a problem solver.? You know what”s a problem in my kitchen?? Leftovers!

Leftovers from this s”mores bar

So, leftover plus my inability to keep from snacking on marshmallows and handfuls of cereal (I”m a classy lady) equals a super creative situation.

Now, who doesn”t love a good single serve, microwavable dessert (like this chocolate cherry cake or this peanut butter cereal cake)?

If anyone doesn”t love a quick and delicious dessert…I don”t want to know a thing about it.

All the cool kids are doing it.

1-Minute Dessert: Sea Salt Chocolate Cherry Cake

Some days are chocolate cake days.

When you drop your stud earring on the floor, then step on it thumb tack style. That’s a chocolate cake day.

When you leave your keys in your car and the engine running and it takes you like half-an-hour to realize it and run back outside in a panic. Um, chocolate cake day.

When your boss is out of town and the phone rings about 20 times. And every time it’s him. Yeah, get you some chocolate cake for that day.

All of these are possible reasons why you need to shove this cake in your face.

But you don’t really need a reason.
