  1. I am loving the title of this fun round up! Beat the heat! Well, I don’t have to worry about heat right now, Yesterday it was 60 degrees in Philly and Baltimore, I’m not kidding. I went on a 5 mile walk with my mom and seriously considered GLOVES. What is going on?!?! I find myself craving the 90 degree sweat/heat. Anyway, so many wonderful no-bake ideas here. I love how pretty the frozen wafer cake is! And that chocolate cake batter milkshake – umm, can I have that for breakfast please?!

    1. Scott was in Connecticut for 4 days and JUST got back. And barely got back, due to bad weather and storms out there. And 60-65F. That’s normal for San Diego this time of year at the coast. Coastal breeze and 60F feels like 50F or less. We get our hot weather in the fall when it’s…pumpkin season! lol And so yes, I run in gloves and an ear warmer and will totally admit it!

  2. Gee whiz dude, how do you stay so thin making all these crazy treats…or do you have lucky neighbors? :)

  3. HA! Everything looks amazing! Where do I start?!? Ahhhh yes, Nutella Brownie Truffle Bites!!! :-D

  4. I wish I was trying to beat the heat…it’s freezing in CT were hoping to break 50 tomorrow and some places may have snow flurries…..I’ll turn the heat up and make some rootbeer floats…my favorite way to stay cool.

    1. San Diego’s not THAT much warmer at the coast. 60 with a wind and coastal breeze. Feels 50 to me! Not the beach weather everyone thinks we always have! :)

  5. A delicious and hunger-inducing round up! Made me realize I haven’t had homemade rice crispy treats in an eternity, for shame! Perhaps I will remedy that this memorial day weekend :)

    1. Thanks, Eva! Those RKTreats are my fave ever and I’m super picky and am a real RKT conissiour, if one can be such a thing :)

  6. I could go for a huge cookie butter milkshake right about now.. in addition to at least five of each of the things on this list. Still obsessing over those microwave caramels!

  7. Awesome round-up for those of us already suffering in sticky-hot weather! I’ve GOT to try your brownie bites, Averie!

  8. No bake desserts are my favorites! But they’re so dangerous for me, as I will make them all.. then eat them all! :) Love these all, thanks for sharing.

  9. It’s funny, I figured moving from NY to FL would mean I didn’t bake a THING from May to September, but then I met air conditioning. ;) That said, I still *love* no-bake recipes for their simplicity. I need to try that parm-ranch snack mix!

    1. The parm-ranch is like a 5 min toss together recipe. Hubs LOVES that stuff. It’s like the savory version of puppy chow- super addictive!

  10. As much as I love my oven- sometimes it needs to NOT be turned on! And that chocolate cake batter shake? I’ll take 3 glasses please :)
