25 Scrumptious 3-Ingredient Desserts You Can Actually Make Right Now

3 ingredient desserts

3-ingredient desserts are beginner friendly and require ingredients you probably already have on hand. 

 

Most desserts require a dozen ingredients, a few hours of work and kitchen turned upside down. 

Quickly whipping up a delicious dessert to surprise family or satisfy a lazy Wednesday cravings will save you time and money. 

 

To make a full-fledged dessert using only 3 ingredients requires a dose of creativity. 

 

It may seem impossible but it is absolutely doable. To do it successfully you need to use ingredients that can take the place of 2, 3 or more ingredients. Like using melted ice cream in place of eggs, milk and oil to bake muffins. Or using white chocolate as a 2-in-1 butter and sweetener.
