6 Sweet Recipes To Try During Quarantine When You're Craving A Little Extra Sugar

So, I've been scrolling through TikTok a lot, which seems to be the online hub for everyone stuck at home right now. However, I cannot get on that app for five minutes without seeing a bunch of people trying out new recipes or giving us tutorials on how to really make chocolate chip cookies or how to perfectly ice a cake. If there's anything positive at all coming out of this pandemic, it's that everyone is finally trying all those new things they've wanted to attempt for the longest time. I'm no baker myself, but I would be lying if I said I didn't want to try out every baking hack or recipe I've seen in the past few weeks. I even compiled a list of different desserts I wanted to try to make, so here I am, sharing that list with you. And again, I am definitely a beginner in the kitchen, so most of these recipes are pretty simple and don't have many ingredients.

I'm a sucker for anything with fruit, so this mango sorbet looks like it's to die for.

This sorbet looks ridiculously easy to make. Literally all you need is mango chunks, sugar, and fruit juice. Especially since it's been getting warmer lately, I have been dying to make some cool sweet snacks. Here is the link to the recipe and instructions!

Caramel and apples always remind me of fall, and I need that sort of comfort right now.

As much as I'm glad the weather is getting warmer, I am even more excited for summer to be over and for fall to begin. Apples and caramel will have to be good for now. Here is the recipe!

Mocha, ice cream, pecans. That's the perfect dessert right there.

Bite-sized desserts of any kind are the way to go. They help you pace yourself (as if you won't want to eat like ten of them anyway) and you can easily save them for later in a little box or bag. These, however, look like they're going to be a top tier dessert. I might be more excited for these than any of the others. Here is the recipe.

These are pretty healthy and easy to make.

These are like a throwback to our childhood, with a healthy twist. But they still seem to be pretty tasty! Here's the recipe!

As both an Oreo and cheesecake lover, this is a dream.

I love any kind of brownie. But what makes any brownie better is adding a bunch of other random ingredients, like Oreos and cheesecake. Here is the recipe.

The perfect personal, one-time desserts are always in a mug.

When I lived in a dorm, mug cakes were basically a necessity in my life. Just something a little sweet that I could make in the microwave was perfect for me. Here's the link!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
