The Best No Bake Cheesecake!

My favorite no bake cheesecake recipe!

Why go the no bake route? Because you don't even have to turn on your oven during these hot summer months, and because this version is easier to make. No water bath required (like a traditional cheecake) and no tending to it, it just sets in the fridge.

I think you'll also love to switch things up for a change from the heavy and dense cheesecake to something with more of a light and airy with just enough body to it.

When you pair this sweet cream cheesecake with a fresh summery strawberry sauce or blueberry sauce you create the ultimate flavor pairing. You will truly be savoring each and every bite!

If you wanted to make it even easier you could use a can of blueberry, raspberry or cherry pie filling - but for the tastiest cheesecake bars possible I highly recommend making it fresh.

A nostalgic summer-time treat that can be enjoyed year round thanks to your indoor oven!

S'mores have long been a favorite treat of mine. They were one of the first things I learned to make as a kid. Slowly and carefully roasting them in a rotisserie art sort of way over the hot coals of campfire during the summer. Then in the winter over the coiled burner of an electric stovetop, and at times I may have even settled for a melted marshmallow quick zapped in the microwave to make them.

One method many of us have been missing out on is this simple broiled option on a baking sheet. And might I add toasting the marshmallow on two sides of course not just one as other guides have shown.

There are many things to love about this simple oven method of making s'mores. You'll get the same golden brown toasted goodness without being campfire cooked, you still get that ooey gooey fluffy melty marshmallow sweetness along with its pairing of rich luxurious chocolate, and crisp honey kissed graham crackers to hold it all together.

And bonus, you can make many at once versus making one or two on a roasting stick! I've listed out 6 servings but make up to 12 at time if you'd like.

These are perfect for when the cravings strike without all the hassle of packing up and venturing into the outdoors to build a campfire. They are beyond easy and always a popular favorite!

Decadent lemon pie made with a crisp graham cracker crust, a sweet and tangy, cream cheese infused, fresh lemon filling, and it's garnished with dollops of fluffy and clouds whipped cream atop.

Why You'll Love This Lemon Pie

No bake option: This simple to make pie can also become a no-bake treat if you opt to go the route of a no-bake crust.

What is a Nanaimo Bar?

Some of you are likely asking, what are Nanaimo Bars? They are a popular Canadian confection, basically a layered bar cookie, that to me tastes very similar to a richly chocolaty, loaded fudge. They are named after the west coast city of Nanaimo, British Columbia.

They consist of 3 layers, a cracker crumb and chocolate base, a custard flavored icing and then they're finished with a chocolate coating.

The instructions for these treats may appear to be long and tedious but these tasty treats are surprisingly super simple to make. They are a no-bake bar, after all.

After one taste you'll be wondering where these delicacies have been your whole life!

What do they taste like?

To me they are reminiscent of fudge, or an Almond Joy - but much better of course. It's something about the chocolate, almond coconut combo. A great combination!

Key lime pie is a great dessert year round but doesn't something about it just scream spring and summer?

It's so vibrant and refreshing and I love that is an easy to make pie that doesn't require a whole lot of extra effort.

The simple filling comes together in no time and its so nice that it uses a graham cracker crust so you don't have to wait for dough to chill and it doesn't make the big floury mess all over the counter (and the floor, and your clothes if you're a messy baker like me).
