Do you love baking but your only appliance is a micro fridge? Are you a dessert aficionado who's disappointed with your dining hall's desserts? Do you want me to stop asking rhetorical questions and get to my point?

If you're still reading that means you likely answered yes to all of these questions and you want to know: what can I bake in a dorm room? Though a micro fridge be but little, it is a fierce appliance that can make some surprisingly savory treats.

1. Banana Nutella Ice Cream

If a banana stolen from the dining hall and a jar of Nutella is all you have, then you have all you need for this extremely simple recipe. Take a banana (or two) and mash in a bowl with a fork until creamy. Add your desired amount of Nutella and mix. (Optional: add hot cocoa powder for an extra chocolatey flavor). Freeze overnight.

2. Chocolate Fudge

Another simple recipe for chocolate lovers: chocolate fudge! It's easy (and cheap!) to make.

1.5 cups of chocolate chips

7 oz (half can) sweetened condensed milk

3/4 teaspoon of vanilla

Melt those chocolate chips in a microwaveable bowl, add sweetened condensed milk and vanilla. Stir. Microwave until well mixed. For best results, pour into a tin baking pan (80 cents for two at Walmart!) for a thin layer of fudge. Refrigerate overnight.

3. Runner's Balls

Runner's Balls are a great snack whether you're a runner or not. This recipe requires a few more ingredients than the previous ones, but its prep is easy (but a little messy!) and it does not require baking.

Dry oatmeal mix

Peanut butter

Chocolate chips

Flaxseed

Honey

Start with a good cup or so of dry oatmeal and add peanut butter and flaxseed until you get a doughy consistency. (Yes, it's easiest to mix it with your hands like play doh) Add honey so it doesn't get too dry. Mix in chocolate chips. Roll into balls. Refrigerator for 1-2 hours.

4. Chocolate Muffin

Who knew you could bake a muffin in a microwave? It's the perfect breakfast (to make the night before) if you're always on-the-go. Even better- most of the ingredients you can get from your dining hall.

1 tbs Ground Flaxseed (which you should have leftover from those runner's balls!)

⅓ cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk (but regular milk should work similarly)

¼ cup Unsweetened Applesauce

4 packets Natural Sweetener

⅛ tsp Salt

15g (3 tbs) Unsweetened Natural Cocoa Powder (hot cocoa mix if you want it really sweet (and if you don't want to pay for cocoa powder))

45g (6 tbs) Oat Flour

1 tsp Double-Acting Baking Powder

In the small bowl you'll be microwaving your muffin in (a small mug/mason jar will do), mix together all the wet ingredients. Then the dry. Microwave for about 4(+) minutes, or until the muffin is fluffy and muffin-esque.

5. Brownies

Say hello to your next best $2 investment. The Rapid Brownie Baker is an all in one microwaveable brownie maker. All you need is:

Any brownie mix of your choice (but let's be real, Betty Crocker fudge brownies reign supreme)

One egg

Oil

Water

The rest is simple- the Rapid Brownie Baker comes with a mixing box for you to pour the ingredients into. Add to the main microwaveable bowl and mix. Microwave for six minutes (even though it says four) and keep microwaving on minute intervals until the middle is cooked.

6. Banana Churros

Churros?! Yep. Churros. Well, banana churros. With only 3 ingredients, this is a piece of cake to make.

1 banana (or more!)

1 tbsp. of coconut oil

Cinnamon sugar (okay, maybe four ingredients)

Chocolate (optional)

Get that coconut oil on a thin tray and microwave it until it's sizzling hot. Meanwhile, chop up some bananas and plop them into the coconut oil (while hot) and roll around. Coat in a layer of cinnamon sugar. Optional: melt chocolate to pour on top to officially become a dorm room baking God/Goddess.

7. Cookies and Cream Bark

With a 1 minute and 20 second total cooking time, this might be the fastest dessert in this list.

1 cup of white chocolate chips, melted

1/8 cup of crushed Oreos

1/4 cup of chocolate chips

A few whole Oreo tops

Mix together melted white chocolate chips and crushed Oreos. Place Oreo tops on top. Melt chocolate chips and drizzle on top. Pour into tin pan (Remember you used one pan for your fudge- use the other for this!) Refrigerate overnight.

As a baker and dessert lover myself, I could go on. Your micro fridge is more powerful than you might think - so get baking!
