Franke: 5-minute desserts for when you don’t feel like baking
Let’s admit it, we all have those moments when we wish we had a live-in chef to whip us up something that looks like it’s come out of the pages of a Master Chef recipe book. Such moments are especially enticing when the couch’s ‘pull of gravity’ is really strong and we’re overwhelmed by a powerful craving for something sweet.
We know the feeling all too well, and that’s why we asked Franke’s Make it Wonderful team to come up with a solution that lets us spend more time relaxing and less time baking. Here’s what they came up with:
