Are you craving something sweet? Do you really want a homemade dessert? Are you only looking to make something small, something quick but something that is still delicious? Well, you have come to the right place!

Sometimes we just need to treat ourselves to something sweet but we don't want or need to make a full-size cake or a dozen cookies for whatever reason. Either you are dining alone or maybe you just don't have all the ingredients needed to make a big batch of something. Times like those are perfect for a delicious single-serve recipe and luckily, there are so many low carb and sugar-free treats we can make for ourselves without any guilt! I've rounded up 20 quick and delicious recipes that fit that bill. There are some really great ones on this list, including some that take just minutes.

One category of single-serving desserts that I absolutely love is the mug cakes on this list. If you have never tried a mug cake, now is definitely the time! Mug cakes are made by mixing a few ingredients together in a microwavable mug and then “baking” the batter right in your microwave. Each cake takes about 2 minutes to put together (a little measuring is required!) and about 2 minutes to cook. The result is a perfectly fluffy, warm, and fresh single serving cake that you can enjoy immediately.

There are all different kinds of mug cakes on this list that you are going to love. From chocolate to peanut butter to lighter lemon flavors, there really is a mug cake for any occasion and any flavor preference. The ingredients you will use are typically the same as those you would use in a regular full-sized cake. Of course, since these recipes are low carb and sugar-free, they utilize ingredients like granular erythritol and almond flour to keep the carbs down and the flavor up! Pick a mug cake on this list and give it a try. They will definitely be your new favorite kind of sugar-free desserts for 1.

On this list, you will also find some quick puddings, tarts, and mousses that you can easily make for one person. There is a surprising amount of options you have when it comes to baking single-serving dishes! So stock up on your erythritol, almond flour, and unsweetened cocoa powder because there is a lot of baking in your future! And what is better than making a fresh dessert every single day?! Why eat day-old cake when you can bake a new cake every night? It only takes a few minutes and will give you that perfect treat you are craving!

Please note that a few of these are listed as 2 servings but within such recipes, you can adjust the serving to one by halving all the ingredients – super easy and convenient!

So how about treating yourself to a nice bubble bath followed by one of these tasty desserts all to yourself today? Sounds pretty good to me! Which dessert will you be making for yourself?
