Oh my darling clementine! One of the things I love about the holidays are the clementines. I buy them by the crate and they become part of breakfast, an afternoon snack, and even dessert. Like little orange globes of sunshine, clementines brighten up the dreary winter evenings.

Does this happen to you? You're up late, watching a movie, and your sweet tooth strikes. There's nothing in the pantry, and a handful of chocolate chips from your baking supply seems like a poor solution. I've tried easy microwave mug cakes, cookies, and brownies...something about them is just strange. They remind me of the end result of the 1980's Easy Bake Oven of my childhood. Sure it looked like a cake, but it definitely tasted like it was baked with a lightbulb. What I really want when this happens is something sweet that tastes like a lot of effort went into it.
