So it’s summer, and it’s pretty hot, which means that having a hot stove or oven going for hours is really not how I want to spend my day.

But I still love desserts! I don’t want to have to exist on ice pops just because it’s hot outside and inside.

These desserts are all no-bake which means you can have a yummy dessert without having a sweltering kitchen! Enjoy!
