Microwave Peppermint Cookie Dough Fudge for One is a quick, sweet, and delicious single-serve Christmas treat you'll love to make when you don't need a huge platter of fudge!
I have never really big a huge fan of single serve desserts- if I am going to go through the trouble of making a dessert, I am going to go ahead and make a big batch, so I can dole it out over time (or, you know, sit down and eat the entire platter in one sitting.... )
I've seen so many delicious-looking single serve desserts lately, that I decided to test out some of my own- and this Peppermint Cookie Dough Fudge for One is a huge hit!
It is so delicious, and perfect for nights when you want a sweet treat, but you're too lazy to mix fudge. All you have to do is microwave in a mug, stir, and chill (or even eat hot)- and dig in! Not much to clean up, no lining with foil, no juggling fridge space for a giant pan of fudge.
I like to make this in a Wilton baking mug from Joann Fabrics- makes cleanup easy and it is small, so it looks like you're eating more than you really are!
It's so easy! I like this dessert when my kids are begging for something sweet after dinner but don't feel like making something complicated- and it comes with the extra bonus of portion control since it's one serving.
Don't go thinking this is diet food because it is only for one- it's still packed with delicious, delicious sugar and butter- but it is helpful to only have a small amount of dessert on hand if your willpower sucks like mine.
This dessert is the perfect treat when you're snuggled up by the fire and listening to Christmas music-- and can be made in under five minutes!
