The first option is a classic: petit gateau. To prepare it, you will need 1 egg, 1 egg yolk, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 2 tablespoons of wheat flour, 2 tablespoons of butter, and 100g of melted dark chocolate. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and pour into two small molds greased with butter and wheat flour. Bake for about 8-10 minutes in a preheated oven at 200°C. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

Another easy and quick dessert is lemon pie. For the crust, simply mix 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup of sugar, and 5 tablespoons of butter until a smooth dough forms, then line a small baking dish. For the filling, mix 1 can of sweetened condensed milk with the juice of 3 lemons and pour over the crust. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve chilled.

For chocolate lovers, mousse is a great option. To prepare it, melt 100g of semi-sweet chocolate in a double boiler and mix with 1 can of heavy cream. Beat two egg whites until stiff peaks form and gently fold them into the chocolate cream. Pour into serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
