I’ve been baking my way through Yossy Arefi’s Snacking Cakes, a cookbook which came out last year. It’s an excellent book, the kind that should just take up residence on your kitchen counter because it’ll get used so much. The cakes are modest, one-bowl, one-pan affairs, but they’re drop-dead delicious.
Several of Arefi’s recipes also call for yogurt, which adds a buttermilk-like tang and lots of moisture, meaning the cakes can hang out on the counter or in the refrigerator for several days. They’re perfect for snack breaks during long days of Zoom school and working from home.

Requiring only a handful of pantry ingredients, a single mixing bowl and a simple pan, the snacking cake comes together quickly and easily, meaning there’s less time between you and your cake. How big a turkey should I buy? That and other Thanksgiving questions answered.
