That's where these six quick, damn delicious desserts for lazy people come in. They're all your favourite classics -- like peanut butter brownie bars, cookie dough and vanilla cake -- but made simple and in under 30 minutes.

So, if you're at home wondering what you can make to satisfy your sweet tooth but are feeling lazy as hell, these quick desserts are for you.

Vanilla gets a pretty bad rap for being... well, so vanilla. But a good quality vanilla dessert (especially studded with chocolate chips) is amazing. Enter this one-minute vanilla mug cake, which is light and fluffy, and a single serve size so you don't go overboard.

Choc chip are obligatory, of course.
