Three Amazing No Bake Desserts to Make with the Kids

I love cooking with my kids.  I really enjoy letting them prepare dishes "all by themselves" and am constantly trying out new recipes that are either super easy to mix and bake, or don't require any baking at all.

The latter is much preferred by the kiddies and gives them a greater sense of ownership of the final product.  Here's a few of our favorite no bake recipes that are easy to assemble, and even easier to eat!



Eclair Cake

Paula Deen's Food Network Recipe - this requires a bit more work, but is great for teaching the kids how to make frosting.

Betty Crocker's Simplified Version - great for group activities like Scouts.

 

 Ice Cream Sandwich Cake

Our traditional Fourth of July treat, unless we are in Michigan where our preferred dessert is Tart Cherry Pie!

Chocolate Delight

Chocolate Delight Dessert | Gourmet Heartbeat Blog

Our favorite dessert for Easter - makes a nice light ending for this springtime holiday meal.
