  1. Hi Leanna! These no bake desserts are perfect for me because I suck at baking! My favorite is the Caramel Apple Snickers Salad, but the Peanut Butter Cheesecake Cups are a very close second. This post is my fave feature for my Traffic Jam Weekend Linky Party going live Thursday, June 7th. Thanks for sharing!

    I just LOVE no bake desserts; especially in the summer! I also love the combo of raspberries and chocolate so I must try that first dessert. It looks amazing! Pinned.

    1. LeannaForsythe says:

      Thank you. I have a serious love of all berries. They are my favourite, especially in summer.

  3. Well, every recipe looks like it can be a favorite. I will have to refer to this list for my next dinner but it will be hard to choose that is for sure.

      I love the thought of dessert without the oven. Because so many of them are just chilled it makes them perfect for making a day ahead.
