Whether you’re just finishing up dining with your significant other (a new or old one), a family member or a simply just a friend, you want to blow them away one last time with a delicious hard-to-forget dessert, right?

If so, you’re in luck! I’ve gathered some of mine and my husband’s favorite dessert for two recipes that are quick and easy to make yet mouthwatering and flavorful! Below, you can find a variety of dessert recipes that have been scaled down for two that include, but are not limited to, fruit desserts, cakes for two and even pudding for two.

Small Batch Cookies & Quick Snacks

Check out some of these small batch cookies and quick snacks. These are my favorite out of the list since I can make normally big batches of things into smaller ones that are fresh and gone quickly!

These recipes surely diminish the fridge and/or counter clutter!
