While I may not love the summertime heat and humidity, I do love the ability to enjoy so many meals outside with family and friends. And what would a gathering be without dessert?! ☀️
I thought it would be fun (and delicious!) to put together a list of my favorite EASY dessert recipes that are great for potlucks and BBQs.
Here are 9 recipes for simple desserts:
| Strawberry Shortcake |
A summer staple, strawberry shortcake is actually super simple to make. If you're having people over, set up a strawberry shortcake DIY station! This is a really fun way to let everyone serve themselves dessert. Some may want to load up on the strawberries while others will keep dolloping on that whipped cream (me!).
| Chocolate Frosted Brownies |
Brownies are delicious any time of year, especially on the back porch. This homemade frosted brownie recipe is quick, and once they're in the oven, most of the work is done! And, I love handheld desserts, like brownies, for gatherings - a simple way for guests to serve themselves.
| No Bake Key Lime Cheesecake |
This easy no bake key lime cheesecake with a vanilla wafer crust and white chocolate is wonderfully refreshing and perfect for summer!
| Ice Cream Sandwich Cake |
It doesn't get any easier than this ice cream sandwich cake! Only 4 ingredients and 10 minutes of prep time needed for this no-bake dessert that kids and adults love.
| Rice Krispie Treats |
Rice Krispie treats will forever be in my back pocket for an easy homemade dessert recipe. These ooey, gooey, loaded bars are always a welcome addition to any meal.
| Soft & Chewy M&M Cookies |
Cookies are another one of my go-to recipes when I want to make a from-scratch dessert but don't have a lot of time. These ultra soft and chewy M&M cookies are great for making ahead, and this simple recipe is fun for bakers of all ages!
| Chocolate Covered Strawberries |
What better way to celebrate summer's fresh berries than with chocolate covered strawberries? This is the best time of year to make this easy, 3-ingredient sweet treat.
| Mountain Mama Icebox Cake |
Icebox cakes are wildly easy to make and always refreshing on warm nights. This mountain mama icebox cake features a pecan shortbread crust and layers of cream cheese, pudding, and Cool Whip.
| Texas Sheet Cake |
Classic Texas sheet cake is so easy to make and perfect for feeding a crowd! And, it just so happens to be our family's cake of choice for celebrating birthdays.
What's your favorite easy summertime dessert? 💛
