Summer Calls For No-Bake Desserts

Some Summer days, it’s too hot to even consider baking. But even the greatest heat waves shouldn’t stop you from satisfying your sweet tooth. With puddings, panna cotta, cheesecake, and lots and lots of fruity options, there’s no reason to turn on the oven when you have the choice of these 25 no-bake desserts.

Sweet and salty dessert fans will love these frozen mojito cakes. The salty pretzel crust is topped with a frozen mojito and cream cheese filling.

Freeze yogurt and fruit together for these delectable bites.

Make a giant Oreo icebox cake, and watch people flock for a bite.

There’s no need to raise your eyebrows! Salty saltines add tremendous flavor when used inice cream sandwiches.

It looks like cake on the outside, but slice it open to reveal a whole watermelon!

As it turns out, speculoos makes for a spicy no-bake cake.

No campfire? No problem! Drizzle melted chocolate over graham cracker cereal and garnish with mini marshmallows for an on-the-go s'mores snack mix.

For those who prefer sour to sweet, try ginger limeade granita, a frozen dessert with flaky, tart ice chips that will awaken the palate.

There’s actually no cake at all in this icebox cake. Chocolate wafers soak up the moisture from whipped cream to create a soft, cake-like texture. Watch the video to see how it’s done, and then print out the recipe.

With an Oreo crust and minty marshmallow filling, mini grasshopper pies are a cooling, colorful way to end a meal.

Giada De Laurentiis is all for effortless desserts that can be enjoyed on the couch. Her chocolate trifles feature chocolate cake cubes and a chocolate custard dolloped on top.

Crema Catalana is a lemony, refrigerated custard. It’s coated in flame-torched sugar, similar to crème brulée.

Beginning bakers should spring for this ice cream cake with whipped cream, ice cream sandwiches, coffee liqueur, and crushed peppermint candy.

Let’s be honest; almond chocolate spread is dessert. Spread it on toast or cookies. Better yet, just grab a spoon.

Make a large batch of this salt-flaked fudge, cut it into bite-size pieces, and keep it in the freezer for convenient grabbing.

Sometimes the best desserts are the ones that are thrown together last minute. Freshen up store-bought sorbet by topping it with citrus vodka and lime zest.

Like the decadent cake but cooler and lighter for warm weather, these German chocolate pudding cups are layered with a coconut pecan custard.

Sometimes you don’t want to go through the trouble of making ice cream. This strawberry semifreddo is the ultimate “lazy” person’s ice cream recipe.

A blackberry fool with Calvados only contains four ingredients, so it’s as easy as it is light.

No need to heat up the oven to make cheesecake. This no-bake cheesecake is made with graham crackers, cream cheese, and condensed milk. There’s no raw egg involved, which means there’s no need to bake!

Nanaimo bars, the legendary bar made famous by Vancouver housewives in the 1950s, is similar to a seven-layer bar with graham cracker, almonds, coconut, and chocolate. Rather than condensed milk, this bar has a creamy pudding layer.

Gelatin and cream set to create these creamy strawberry panna cotta cups.

What’s not to love about the classic pairing of peanut butter and chocolate? We imagine that peanut butter and chocolate pudding cups would make great frozen pudding pops too.

Melt-in-your-mouth grape gelatin with blueberries is a refreshing dessert that won’t weigh you down with any heavy cream. Add a splash of Champagne or vodka for a spiked version.

The Eton Mess originated in the 1800s at a distinguished British public school. The strawberry, heavy cream, and meringue cookie mixture was originally served after an important annual cricket game.

Really nice recipes. Every hour.

Introducing Character Drawcember!

This is a series of drawing prompts I designed for myself to get into a better rhythm of art production and also to think in depth about my characters. I’m posting this in case anyone else would like to work through the list too! :) I purposefully designed the workload to be relatively relaxed, since December is a busy month for a lot of people, myself included.

RULES: Use whatever of your own characters you want to use. You can stick to the same couple of characters or use all different ones. Any medium, and they don’t have to be consistent in style or technique. Basically there are no rules, just use this as a fun opportunity to work on your cast of characters. If you do decide to do this challenge, use the tag Character Drawcember!

WEEK ONE (Dec 1-7)

Sketch…

…a protagonist

…an antagonist

…an old character you don’t use anymore, and then redesign them.

Finish one of these into a full-color piece.

WEEK TWO (Dec 8-14)

Sketch…

…the inside of your character’s room.

…your character as a child, adult, and senior.

…an alternate universe version of one of your characters.

Finish one of these into a full-color piece.

WEEK THREE (Dec 15-21)

Sketch…

…a big group shot of your characters.

…a fake screenshot, as if your characters had their own movie

If you’re not done yet (it’s okay!!), use this extra time to finish!

I made another thing! This time a Jellyfish out of hair and arm nets from the time that I worked at a blue berry factory!

Smile for the camera! [x]
