20 Easy No-Bake Desserts With Few Ingredients

Corey Williams is a food writer for MyRecipes and Allrecipes. She has a decade of journalism experience.

Sometimes you just want a little simplicity in your life. When you're short on time and supplies, throw together one of these easy no-bake desserts — you can make each one with five or fewer ingredients and you'll never have to fire up your oven! Whether you are in the mood for a crowd-pleasing cake (this Ice Cream Sandwich Cake is super kid-friendly), an easy pie that sets in the fridge (try this velvety Rich Chocolate Truffle Pie or this five-minute No-Bake Nutella Pie ), bite-sized cookies (make these Oreo Cookie Balls with just three ingredients), or something completely different (you'll never guess the secret ingredient in these Peanut Butter Haystacks ), you'll find something for everyone in this collection of easy no-bake desserts with few ingredients.

Easy, No-Bake Nutella Pie

"I had a graham cracker crust and a jar of Nutella to use up, and this recipe was born," says recipe creator Christina . "This pie takes literally 5 minutes to make and is similar to a fluffy chocolate mousse pie, but with a flavor twist."

Paleo No-Bake Chickpea Cookie Dough

This healthy protein-packed edible cookie dough is sweetened with agave nectar instead of sugar, but you can use honey if that's what you have on hand. It comes together in about 10 minutes using a blender.

Yummy No-Bake Cinnamon Rolls for Kids

Even young children can prep these quick and easy cinnamon rolls — made with white bread, butter, cinnamon-sugar, confectioners' sugar, and water — all by themselves.

No-Bake Peanutty Graham Treats

"I invented this easy no-bake recipe because of a bake sale at work, combined with my boredom with the usual rice cereal version," says recipe creator ~Marianne~ . "It was one of the most requested cookies, and helped me make enough for a down payment on my home!"

Cookie Balls

Make these simple cookie balls with only three ingredients: chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreos), cream cheese, and vanilla-flavored candy coating.

Shorecook's Nutter Butter Cookie Balls

"I wanted a cookie ball that didn't need refrigeration," says recipe creator SHORECOOK . "Using peanut butter instead of cream cheese gave me just that. The texture is different than that of cake balls, but they are so much easier to make and just as delicious!"

Nobody can resist these classic chocolate-covered peanut butter balls made with just peanut butter, butter, semisweet chocolate chips, vanilla, and confectioners' sugar.

Chocolate Chip Graham Balls

These four-ingredient cookie balls have the most irresistible texture, made crunchy with graham crackers and moist with a can of sweetened condensed milk.

Peanut Butter Haystacks

What's the secret ingredient in these sweet and salty butterscotch-peanut butter cookies? Chow mein noodles. In springtime, these can serve as "bird's nests" (use jelly beans as eggs)!

Rich Chocolate Truffle Pie

This rich, velvety pie is made with just semisweet chocolate chips, heavy whipping cream, confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract, and a store-bought chocolate crumb crust.

5-Ingredient Tiramisu

It couldn't be easier to make this no-bake Italian dessert with only heavy whipping cream, sugar, mascarpone cheese, brewed espresso, and store-bought lady finger cookies.

Boardwalk Quality Maple Walnut Fudge

"Throughout the summer we enjoy the fudge sold on the boardwalk at the shore," says recipe creator SHORECOOK . "Hubby and I came up with this recipe so that we would be able to enjoy our favorite flavor year round."

Cannoli Dip

"This dip takes the tastes and flavors of a cannoli and turns it into a wonderful party snack," according to recipe creator Megan . "To serve, break up pizzelle cookies or waffle cones into chip-size pieces to scoop cannoli dip and enjoy!"

2-Ingredient Peanut Butter Fudge

"This is the easiest fudge ever," according to recipe creator knasels.babygirl . "Every time I make it I get so many compliments on how great it is. This is the easiest peanut butter fudge ever, and it is so good."

Homemade Melt-In-Your-Mouth Dark Chocolate

"Homemade chocolate that melts in your mouth," says recipe creator Linda . "Made without artificial ingredients or waxes, this wholesome treat is ideal for the health conscious individual who enjoys an indulgent treat."

Sweetened Condensed Milk for Snow Ice Cream

This deliciously sweet and creamy ice cream has an unexpected secret ingredient: Snow! Recipe creator Lyn Olgin was snowed in and couldn't get to the store for sweetened condensed milk, so she improvised her own with powdered vanilla-flavored coffee creamer.

Oreo Cookie Bark

This decadent candy bark is so delicious, nobody will believe it's made with only two ingredients: a package of chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreos) and two packages of white chocolate.

Cherry-Pistachio Bark

This simple recipe — which calls for dried cherries, white chocolate chips, vanilla-flavored candy coating, and chopped pistachios — makes the perfect edible Christmas gift.

Ice Cream Sandwich Cake

"My daughter renamed this recipe 'The Best Dessert I've Ever Eaten' this summer when I prepared it for Memorial Day," says recipe creator DAYMOMMY . "I had made it before, but my husband had probably eaten all of it before she had a chance to get a taste!"

Easy Strawberry Shortcake

A package of store-bought sponge cake dessert cups makes this perfect-for-summer treat incredibly simple to prepare. This recipe calls for a can of whipped topping, but you can use Cool Whip or homemade whipped cream .

Or spending all day baking. These 25 easy dessert recipes require a measly five ingredients or less (plus the occasional, optional whipped cream topping or rainbow sprinkles).

17 Baking Recipes for Total Beginners

1. 3-ingredient Blood Orange Granita

Granita is a lot like a snow cone. You know, one that’s chic and not limited to the summer months.

2. 3-ingredient Coconut Ice Cream

It’s sweetened with honey, but you can use maple syrup to make it vegan. Bonus points for dishing this up in a halved pineapple for presentation.

3. Easy Chocolate Marshmallow Cups

These lil’ cuties are rich, velvety and a treat you’d pay top dollar for at a fancy bakery (but they taste even better than that).

4. Cheater’s Mini Rhubarb Galettes

Want to know a secret? We use store-bought pie dough to make this recipe a breeze.

5. Frozen Chocolate Soufflé

A typical soufflé is intimidating (and makes us feel like Audrey Hepburn in Sabrina ). Our solution? Freeze it.

6. One-ingredient Watermelon Sorbet

This sounds too good to be true, but we promise it’s not.

7. Blackberry Jam Pie-crust Straws

If you, like us, crave pie once every 5 seconds, these flaky pastries have you name on them. They take 35 minutes to make and half that time is totally hands off.

8. Cold Brew Ice Pops

This might be the most delicious way to get your caffeine fix.

9. Rosé Poached Pears With Ginger And Vanilla

Fruit for dessert is usually a snooze-fest…unless it’s cooked in an entire bottle of wine.

10. 3-ingredient Ice Cream (with Endless Variations)

Start with vanilla and add any mix-ins you want. Caramel swirl? Crushed cookies? Sounds delish.

11. Mini Caramel Apples

Psst: The caramel comes from melted store-bought candies, but you don’t have to tell anyone.

12. 3-ingredient Strawberry Ice-cream Shell

You can swap the strawberry for any flavor, but the rainbow sprinkles are nonnegotiable.

13. Ruby Red Grapefruit Panna Cotta

This classic Italian dessert is really easy to make and lightly cleanses your palate—instead of filling you up—after a big meal.

14. Raspberry Prosecco Ice Pops

Frozen Bellini on a stick? Don’t mind if we do.

15. Ice-cream Cupcakes

They can be kept in the freezer for up to two weeks, so make a batch now and eat them whenever.

16. Cantaloupe-mint Sorbet

What has four ingredients and tastes like the essence of sunshine? This sorbet is what.

17. 3-ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies

When a cookie craving strikes, there’s no time to fuss over a complicated recipe. These take 20 minutes to make and we bet you have every ingredient already in your pantry.

18. Chrissy Teigen’s 3-ingredient Chocolate Mousse

The salty puffed rice hazelnut crackle is optional (but worth the extra effort).

19. Berry-coconut Rocket Pops

They’re just like the ones from the ice cream truck of your childhood, only grown up and even more delicious.

20. Salted Coconut Sorbet With Peanuts

Here’s proof that you don’t need an ice-cream maker to make homemade sorbet.

21. Watermelon-kiwi Ice Pops

While you could use special molds for these pops, paper cups also do the trick.

22. The Easiest 3-ingredient Brigadeiros, Two Ways

It’s the next best thing to hopping a flight to Brazil.

23. Cookies-and-cream Ice Pops

They’re cold, frosty and no-cook. The hardest part is waiting for them to come out of the freezer.

24. No-bake Sugar Cookie Truffles

Switch up the sprinkles for a festive dessert that’s ready for any celebration (or Tuesday night).

25. Fresh Fruit Ice Pops

If you ask us, you’re never too old to enjoy an ice pop.

53 Easy Dessert Recipes You Can Whip Up at a Moment’s Notice

By Zoe Denenberg and The Bon Appétit Staff & Contributors

We love making a weekend project out of an elaborate cake or pasty, but having a few easy dessert recipes ready to fire is crucial for satisfying sudden sugar cravings or for when you realize— eep! —you forgot the final course while your dinner party guests are en route. For situations like these, we turn to something semi-homemade (shortcuts are key) or otherwise no-fuss: ice cream made in a resealable plastic bag , apples simply halved and baked until soft and warm, or pastries that make the most out of our favorite freezer staple (spoiler: It’s frozen puff pastry ).

In this collection of easy dessert recipes, we’re asking the important questions: Why fuss over flaky pastry when you can make a press-in cookie crust in a fraction of the time? Why use more than one bowl to mix cake batter? Why churn ice cream from scratch when you could make cool, calm, collected semifreddo ? Scroll on for your new favorite quick, easy, and delicious desserts.

Olive Oil Cake

This easy dessert recipe needs little adornment, but if you’re making it for spring, spoon sliced strawberries on top and add a big dollop of crème fraîche.

Matcha-Dipped Strawberries

Speaking of strawberries, dip the fresh fruit—you don’t even have to remove the stems—into a mixture of white chocolate and matcha , sprinkle with sesame seeds, and dessert is done.

Buttermilk Banana Cake

Those bananas that you let go black and brown? They can become more than just banana bread ; they can become this cardamom-scented cake with a buttermilk glaze.

Blueberry Compote With Coriander

Fresh or frozen blueberries team up with coriander in a versatile compote—it takes no more than 10 minutes in a saucepan—that you can serve over ice cream or a simple store-bought sponge cake.

Pear Snacking Cake With Chocolate and Rosemary

This easy cake is for those who don’t like their desserts too sweet. (Although you don’t have to wait until dessert time; this snacking cake is just as good with coffee for breakfast.)

Cinnamon Butterscotch

There’s no need for a candy thermometer when making this butterscotch sauce. Drizzle it over apple desserts , vanilla ice cream, or even toast.

Pumpkin Spice Crumb Cake

Tightly wrapped, this fall-friendly crumb cake can hang out at room temperature for a couple of days—so if you made it for breakfast and need a dessert, go ahead and serve it again.

Matcha Swirl Spritz Cookies

Thanks to strategically placed matcha powder and green food coloring, these cookies look like they were a lot more complicated to make than they are.

Raspberry Jell-O Salad

Be the relative you want to be: Be the relative who brings their famous raspberry Jell-O salad—topped with whipped cream and crushed graham crackers—to every family gathering.

Chocolate Pie With Press-In Crust

You could assemble this press-in pie crust with your eyes closed: Mix melted butter, sugar, salt, and flour in a bowl, then press the dough onto the bottom and up the sides of a buttered pie dish. Then into the oven it goes.

Buttery Jam Diagonals

All the comfort of jam-filled thumbprint cookies in a striking, reimagined shape—and a streamlined, less-fussy process. There’s no faster way to churn out a dozen pretty cookies .

Stone Fruit Brown Betty

Got two pounds of summer fruit and a few slices of stale sandwich bread? You’re just an hour away from this bubbling, juicy, cinnamon toast-y brown Betty.

Oatmeal Baked Apples

Top a baked apple with granola (using store-bought makes it even easier) and maple-syrup-infused sour cream for an easy dessert recipe that effortlessly transitions between delightful breakfast and satisfying dessert.

Blueberry Fool With Toasted Coconut

Just like the Eton mess , the laid-back blueberry fool is a classic British dessert with an airy texture and subtle sweetness. This one is particularly creamy, tangy, crunchy, and jammy—basically all the good things.

Hadji Bada (Iraqi Almond Cookies)

Hadji bada, Iraqi almond cookies, have a floral backbone courtesy of a hint of rose water and a gluten-free flourless cookie dough thanks to almond meal.

Flourless Chocolate Cake With Café de Olla Ganache

So dense it’s almost fudgy, the best part of this flourless chocolate cake might be the Mexico-inspired café de olla ganache that gets poured over top.

BA’s Best Peanut Butter Cookies

File these peanut butter cookies under “easy cookies” and “superior cookies.” (Double-roasted peanuts bring big flavor.) If you’re looking for a no-bake dessert , though, these chocolate-peanut butter cookies are the ones.

Yogurt-​Berry Paletas

If you always keep a carton of yogurt in the fridge, allocate a few scoopfuls to these cooling yogurt-berry paletas. You only need a few hours and a silicone ice-pop mold to make this easy dessert recipe.

Easy-Fancy Pear Galette

This galette is just as great for brunch as it is for dessert. Since it relies on canned pears and store-bought puff pastry, you can make it in a pinch.

Chewy Date and Dark Chocolate Cookies

Tahini, olive oil, dates, and bittersweet chocolate chunks make the texture of these cookies almost brownie-like. Pantry running on empty? These Nutella brownies require only three ingredients.

Easiest Vanilla Birthday Cake

We call this cake recipe the easiest for a reason, but if you really don’t want to bake a cake from scratch, learn how to jazz up boxed cake mix .

A Giant Panna Cotta

This large-format panna cotta sets in a baking dish, so there’s no need for ramekins (or for cleaning them all). Spoon out servings for an effortless dinner party finale.

Classic Bananas Foster

High drama, minimal effort—that’s the allure of this classic, fiery, quick dessert. If you’re not a fan of bananas, know you can light just about any fruit on fire .

Any-Berry Lemon Ricotta Cake

“Delicious cake that tastes like summer,” says a reader from Lyon, France. Use any berry you’d like in the simple, flexible recipe, and it’s still guaranteed to taste that way.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie

This peanut butter fudge pie has a little secret—oh, we just gave it away: There’s a layer of chewy chocolate on the bottom. It’s got all the flavor of a frozen Reese’s cup , but in a cool, creamy sliceable form.

Chocolate-Matcha Butter Mochi Cake

This bouncy, buttery mochi cake is naturally gluten-free—thanks, sweet rice flour —and is sure to impress everyone at the potluck. Just look at that chic dusting of matcha on top.

Peanut Butter Rice Crispy Treats With Brown Butter

What should you do with the rest of that jar of peanut butter ? Use it for these chewy treats, made with marshmallow and puffed rice cereal. Brown butter gives them a warm, toffee-like flavor.

Ruffled Milk Pie With Raspberries

If you want an easy recipe that looks incredible, reach for frozen sheets of phyllo pastry . Scrunch them up with your hands, then stud them with fresh berries and bake them in a milky custard and you’ve got an artful centerpiece.

Blackberries and Vanilla Cream With Crispy Puff Pastry

This low-maintenance riff on French mille-feuille is all about deconstruction. You don’t have to be careful with the puff pastry; you’re going to break it into shards anyway.

Classic Banana Pudding

No need to get fancy with this cookout classic: Boxed vanilla wafers earn their place here. Note, though, that the components need time in the fridge, so while this may be an easy dessert recipe, it does take a little planning.

Strawberry-Biscoff Cheesecake Tart

With no springform pan or mixer required and a 30-minute bake time, this might be the least fussy cheesecake we’ve ever met. Prefer no-bake cheesecake? Try these ginger-lime bars .

Plum–Black Pepper Yogurt Semifreddo

Think of semifreddo like homemade ice cream, only requiring less effort. This one gets its light, airy texture from a mixture of sweetened condensed milk, Greek yogurt, and whipped cream.

Citrus Caramel Sundaes With Toasted Almonds

Making the caramel is the trickiest part of this otherwise hands-off recipe, but follow our lead and you’ll be just fine. (It only takes sugar and water.)

Brown-Sugar-Braised Pineapple

Picked a subpar pineapple at the grocery store? Bathe it in brown sugar syrup and no one will be the wiser. The only real effort required in this recipe is cutting that pineapple.

BA’s Best Snickerdoodles

There are three major time-savers in this cookie recipe : No need to wait for butter to soften; you’re melting it. No need to chill the cookie dough ; just let it sit on the counter. No need to cook them until golden brown; you’re not looking for color, just a 10-minute bake.

Chocolate-Almond Fridge Fudge

A secret ingredient replaces the dairy in this easy chocolate dessert. Just kidding, it’s not a secret: It’s avocado . Bonus: This recipe can be made one week ahead of serving.

Candy Cane Ice Cream in a Bag

Making ice cream without an ice cream machine? If you have two resealable plastic bags , rock salt, and a bunch of ice, then you can do it.

Brown Butter Peach Cobbler

We don’t mean to brag, because cobbler is delicious all on its own, but if you want to make your peach cobbler even better, we know how: Add brown butter.

Rum-Soaked Fruit and Coconut Crisp Sundaes

It only takes 10 minutes and zero heat to turn ripe strawberries and raspberries into a syrupy topping for a not-so-typical vanilla ice cream sundae.

Easy Sheet Cake With Chocolate-Cream Cheese Frosting

Meet your new favorite birthday cake recipe , cooked in one 13x9" baking dish. (For what it’s worth, our readers tell us the batter and icing work well as cupcakes too.)

BA’s Best Chocolate Chip Cookies

What makes this the best chocolate chip cookie recipe? Crispy edges, chewy centers, and classic flavor with every batch. Oh, and there’s no electric mixer required.

Chocolate-Avocado Pudding

Silky like chocolate mousse , this pudding is actually vegan (thanks, avocado), low-sugar (thanks, maple syrup and agave nectar), and would be acceptable on the breakfast table. Mousse could never.

Peach and Sesame Crumble

Triple the sesame, triple the deliciousness. Rich, earthy tahini teams up with toasted sesame seeds and toasted sesame oil to balance the sweetness of late summer peaches in this easy dessert recipe.

Chocolate Date-Caramel Cups

We’ll say it: These are better than chocolate peanut butter cups. Also, using muffin tin liners to assemble and shape this easy dessert makes it even easier.

Lemon Pound Cake

If you haven’t had success preparing dessert recipes in the past, you’ve come to the right place. We promise you: This classic lemon pound cake is not one you can mess up.

Coconut-Mango-Lime Barfi

This recipe is one-bowl and no-bake. You don’t even have to make triangle shapes if you don’t want to; just roll the barfi into truffles. So, tell us: What are you gonna do with all your free time?

Cookies and Black Sesame Cream

Cookies and cream meets black sesame ice cream in this no-churn summer dessert. Originally developed with Nabisco’s Famous Chocolate Wafers (since discontinued), you can swap in Oreos instead.

Blackout Chocolate Banana Bread

Think of this recipe as a cross between BA’s Best Banana Bread and a crowd-pleasing blackout cake . Whole wheat flour lends a nuttiness to the batter, but feel free to replace it with more all-purpose if that’s all you’ve got.

Blackberry Icebox Cake

Not only is this icebox cake a no-bake dessert , it also has you build its layers in a bowl for maximum ease. Invert it, remove the bowl, and boom: You’ve got a dome-shaped dessert that helps you keep your chill.

These rice cakes have just three ingredients: sweet rice flour, a little sugar, and water. Then you just need nutty-tasting roasted soybean powder, which you can find at Korean markets or online .

Cardamom Bread Pudding

Infuse heavy cream with sugar and cardamom, toast white bread in a skillet , and then let your refrigerator do the rest of the work before you top this easy dessert recipe with chopped pistachios and serve.

Dark Chocolate-Espresso Ice Pops

Remember those fudge pops you’d eat as a kid? Make a grown-up version of the chocolate dessert by mixing in a pinch of espresso powder.

Roasty Toasty Pecan-Caramel Shortbread Cookies

All right, we’re just going to say it: shortbread > sugar cookies . This not-too-sweet treat is one of our favorite easy dessert recipes because it’s a slice-and-bake and leans on store-bought dulce de leche .

53 Easy Desserts to Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth

By Joe Sevier and The Editors of Epicurious

There are times when, feeling ambitious, the idea of rolling up your sleeves and getting lost in a weekend baking project sounds fun. Other times, easy desserts—the kinds that immediately meet your sugary needs—are all you can fathom making. Something sweet must appear, ASAP, your body tells you. (Or maybe it’s your heart talking. As they say, the heart wants what it wants.) For those latter moments, here’s a collection of desserts that come together with minimal active prep and cooking times. From brownies and one-bowl cakes to simple ice cream sundaes and three-ingredient truffles, this list contains 53 ways to make something satisfyingly sweet—right now.

Molten Double Chocolate Mug Cake

Mug cake isn't exactly the prettiest of easy desserts , but does that matter when it’s this gooey-rich and comes together in just three minutes? 

Candied Pumpkin With Tahini and Date Syrup (Kabak Tatlısı)

Candied pumpkin is a popular sweet in Turkey, where it can either be cooked on the stove or in an oven. This recipe goes with the oven method for ease and speed.

Vanilla No-Bake Cheesecake With a Chocolate Cookie Crust

If you are new to no-bake cheesecakes, welcome to a world without cracked cake exteriors or over-baked interiors. There's no baking here , just refrigerating.

3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies

Like chocolate chip cookies, classic peanut butter cookies are hard to beat. But this gluten-free, three-ingredient cookie recipe—yes, you read that right—may be even better.

Blackberry and Chocolate Ice Cream Icebox Cake

This dish looks more complicated than it is. Really, if you have the time to whip some cream , you can throw together this no-bake dessert. (Also available in peach and pecan or raspberry-pistachio .)

Plátanos Horneados con Crema y Queso (Baked Banana With Crema and Cheese)

Whether you cook these heirloom bananas on a baking sheet in your oven or toss them onto the grill, their flavors will concentrate, which means most of the work is done. To finish, just top them with crema and queso fresco.

PBJ Thumbprint Bars

These blondie-like bars are flavored with peanut butter and dotted with pools of jam and toasty chopped peanuts. Finish the batch with a drizzle of melted white (or dark, or milk) chocolate.

Berry Cream Cheese Cake

Dark brown sugar gives this snacking cake a little molasses edge, which cuts the sweetness of the berries and the richness of the cream cheese.

Summer Berry-Coconut Milk Ice Pops

This jammy mash-up of blackberries , strawberries, and blueberries with coconut milk and cardamom beats vanilla ice cream any day.

Hot Water Peach Cobbler

The method here is a bit unusual: Dress juicy peaches with lemon zest, then smear the batter on top, followed by a dousing of sugar and hot water . The result is a crackly crust unrivaled in the world of cobbler recipes .

Microwave Coconut Sticky Rice With Mango

Coconut sticky rice needn't be intimidating. As Pepper Teigen, also known as model and cookbook author Chrissy Teigen ’s mother, will show you, all you need is a microwave.

Best Cocoa Brownies

These deliciously fudgy brownies do call for good cocoa powder , but they don’t require you to melt dark chocolate . Skip that and get these babies into the oven even faster.

Lemon curd can be made with pantry staples , and this easy recipe calls for nothing beyond lemons (the juice and the zest), sugar, butter, and eggs.

One-Bowl Ricotta Olive Oil Pound Cake

No need to wait around for butter to soften for this citrusy one-bowl olive oil cake. It's also perfect in any season: Serve it with berries in summer, plums or figs in the fall, a citrus salad come winter, or poached rhubarb in spring. Or, skip the fruit and have it with a nice cup of tea . 

Butter Mochi

Butter mochi's texture falls somewhere between sticky taffy and cloud-like marshmallows: delightfully chewy, bouncy, and dense all at the same time.

Cinnamon–Chocolate Chunk Skillet Cookie

There are times for individual cookies , and there are times that call for a large-format cookie that everyone at the table can enjoy. This one (an example of the latter) is, according to one reader, “easy, appealing, and tasty! Part of the fun is the variation in texture from the chewy center to the crisp edge.” Agreed.

Frozen Chocolate Bananas

Sure, Oreos and Reese's peanut butter cups are great, but how about a sweet treat that's almost as easy to make as it is to unwrap a package of cookies or candy—so easy, in fact, that your little ones can help ?

Cranberry-Orange Snacking Cake

The genius of this easy snacking cake recipe comes from using canned cranberry sauce as the fruit swirl. It’s perfect for breakfast or as an afternoon snack.

Frozen Yogurt Bark

This refreshing treat is fun to eat for breakfast, but if you're serving it for dessert, you could drizzle some white chocolate or smashed pretzel bits (or maybe even Nutella?) over the bark before popping it in the freezer.

Homemade "Dole Whip"

As any Disney Park fanatic can tell you, it’s not a visit to the Magic Kingdom without a helping of this dairy-free, soft-serve–like pineapple dessert. Now you can make the magic at home.

Whipped Cream Cake

Neither butter nor oil is responsible for this cake's tender and moist texture. In this clever recipe from expert Rose Levy Beranbaum, it's all about heavy cream .

Chocolate Swirl Tiramisu

Classic tiramisu , while delicious, involves whipping egg yolks and soaking ladyfingers and fastidiously layering everything in a dish. In other words, it's a project. This cheater's tiramisu cuts some corners.

Salted Caramel Chocolate Brownie

Is it a brownie or a chocolate chip cookie bar? Whatever you want to call it, it's clear that salted caramel and rich, fudgy chocolate were made for each other.

Chocolate-Avocado Pudding

Avocado is the key to this low-sugar, vegan-friendly, crowd-pleasing chocolate pudding. So, yes, it would be completely acceptable for you to eat this (produce-based!) dessert for breakfast.

Instant Pot Lemon Vanilla Rice Pudding With Whipped Cream

If you have an Instant Pot , you can make this creamy, aromatic rice pudding with just ten minutes of active time. Let the machine do the rest.

3-Ingredient Creamy Coconut-Lime Ice Pops

Unsweetened coconut milk , cream of coconut, and limes. That's all you need for this easy dessert recipe, which makes for creamy, floral, refreshing, and portable treats.

Midnight Puppy Chow

This twist on the slumber party classic puppy chow—also known as monkey munch, muddy buddies, muddy munch, or reindeer chow—gets its darker look from a dusting of cocoa powder instead of confectioners' sugar.

Chocolate-Almond Fridge Fudge

This fudge is definitely an easy dessert to make, but one thing is non-negotiable: using bittersweet chocolate with minimum 60% cacao. Lower percentages won't get you the right texture (and fudge is all about the texture).

Raspberry-Lemon Icebox Cake

Maybe you ate gingersnaps growing up, but did you ever think to use them in a cake? Now's your chance. They add a hint of spice to this cream cheese–enriched make-ahead summer classic.

Sheet-Pan Brownie Thins

Some people are cakey brownie people, and some are chewy brownie people. This one's for the latter group. Spread the batter into a thin layer and you'll end up with ¼-inch-thick brownies, all of which have the texture of those edge pieces you usually go for.

Apple and Nut-Butter Puff Pastry Tarts

This recipe satisfies the urge for apple pie with a pack of store-bought frozen puff pastry.

Apple-Cranberry Crisp With Oatmeal-Cookie Crumble

Inspired by the bright flavors of cranberry sauce, tangy cranberries and sweet orange zest add a floral tartness to this apple crisp, which is topped with an oatmeal cookie crumble studded with almonds.

No-Bake Butterscotch-Coconut Cookies

Need cookies in a flash? These butterscotch "buttons" come together in 15 minutes and don't require an oven. (You don't need to turn that thing on right now.)

3-Ingredient Frozen Mud Pie

The pie crust: Buy a frozen pie shell . The ice cream: Buy that, too. The hardest part about this delicious dessert is slicing it.

Two-Ingredient Truffles

Chocolate truffles sound elaborate, but they're almost as easy to make as s'mores: The base contains just two ingredients. After that, explore any fun toppings you like, from pistachios to toffee.

One-Bowl Milk Chocolate Cake With Chocolate-Caramel Frosting

One-bowl cakes are the kind of dessert you can make on a whim on a weeknight. Real milk chocolate—not just cocoa powder—gives this cake batter its rich, chocolatey flavor.

Easy Fruit Tart With Pecan Cookie Crust

This gorgeous dessert has a nutty tart shell inspired by pecan sandies and a lemon curd–spiked whipped cream filling. The fruit topping can be as simple as you like; just sprinkle berries on top if you want to. That's it.

3-Ingredient Maple-Pecan Fudge

This pecan-studded fudge is all about the flavor of pure maple syrup—and you really do want to use pure maple syrup since syrup with additives can separate during cooking.

Texas Sheet Cake

When time is tight and you need something to bring to a potluck, this is the perfect crowd pleaser: A large, thin layer of chocolate cake slathered with gooey chocolate frosting.

Quick Raspberry Charlotte

This sweet treat is a continental love story. Savoiardi, or crisp Italian-style ladyfingers, get the French treatment when they're doused in Cognac, cream, and raspberry purée.

Slow-Roasted Rhubarb

You could make a fancy rhubarb cake or tart , but rhubarb’s naturally sweet and tangy flavors don’t need much more than a simple roasting in order to fully express themselves. This would be delicious served over ice cream after a big lasagna dinner.

Pastel Butter Cookies

To give almond shortbread cookies the pastel treatment, dust them with powdered sugar—powdered sugar that you've dyed with finely ground freeze-dried blueberries, raspberries, and mangoes . (Look at you!)

Balsamic-Strawberry Pops

Ice pops are lovable because there’s so much payoff for so little fuss. These strawberry pops have two twists, though: balsamic vinegar and black pepper. (They work; promise.)

Raspberry Sundaes With Chocolate Sauce and Roasted Almonds

The only thing you really make for this simple dessert is the chocolate sauce. Otherwise, it’s just scooping and assembling.

Raspberry and Aperol Floats

These bittersweet floats feature citrusy Aperol , but you can use Campari if that's what you have on hand. Want to make a version for non-drinkers? Substitute pomegranate juice for the liqueur.

Bittersweet-Chocolate Truffles

What's easier than making truffles? Half-making them. Bring the truffle mixture to the table and serve it family-style; then your guests can handle the toppings, tossing them in cocoa powder or sandwiching them between wedges of clementine.

Mini Strawberry Eton Mess

A classic British dessert—truly a beautiful, delicious mess—made of whipped cream, store-bought meringues , and fruit, the Eton mess looks like it took way more time to make than it did.

Any Berry Galette

Galettes satisfy the taste for pie, but they're so much more forgiving. The shape doesn't really matter and the crust is easy to make (or buy).

Meyer Lemon Cream With Graham Crackers and Sea Salt

Adding cream to lemon curd makes it extra spoonable, almost mousse-like. From there, just crumble some graham crackers in your hands and sprinkle them on top. (The title of this gallery doesn’t lie.)

Anytime Chocolate Chip and Oat Cookies

Optimized for portioning, chilling, and baking right from the freezer, this texture-rich cookie dough—it has oats, whole grain flour, and nuts and seeds—means you're never more than 25 minutes away from a warm, gooey cookie .

Chocolate Zucchini Cake

Grated zucchini is the secret behind this cake's moistness (and a fun way to get your vegetables in), while chocolate chips and walnuts add texture. This recipe would probably make great cupcakes, too. Just saying.

No-Churn Almond and Raspberry Swirl Ice Cream

If you've never seen "ice cream" and "easy desserts" in the same sentence, please meet no-churn ice cream. No ice cream machine is required; just an electric mixer and a freezer.

Mother's Day 2024 Easy-To-Make Dessert Recipes:

Peanut butter, banana and jam crepes.

Mix all-purpose flour, eggs, milk, water, melted butter, and salt in a big bowl. Whisk till there are no lumps in the mixture. Now, heat up a pan and grease it with butter. Scoop and pour the mix onto the pan and tilt it to spread the batter. Cook for 2 minutes on each side until the crepe turns golden brown. Spread peanut butter and cut up banana slices on half the crepe. Fold and spread mixed fruit jam. Fold the crepe again to make a triangle shape and garnish with banana slices and icing sugar.

Gooey Chocolate Brownie

To make this thick, fudgy and gooey brownie , you will need four ingredients: almond butter, cocoa powder, maple syrup, and chocolate frosting. In a bowl, mix the almond butter, maple syrup, and cocoa powder. Transfer the batter to a lined pan and add chocolate frosting on top. Refrigerate the brownies for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

No-Bake Oreo Pie

Take a family-size pack of Oreos, and set aside more than half the cookies for the crust and a few for making the filling and garnishing. In a bowl, mix crushed Oreos and melted butter until well combined. Transfer the mix to a pie plate and press it firmly to create an even layer of base. Stick it in the freezer while you prepare the filling. Now, mix cheese cubes, hung curd, cottage cheese, and Oreos in a blender. Add this to the crust and smooth out the top. Garnish with crushed Oreos. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Nutella Crepes

In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour and eggs. Add milk, water, melted butter, and salt to the mixture. Stir the ingredients to combine without making any lumps. Now, lightly grease a pan with butter and scoop the batter into the pan. Quickly tilt the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter evenly on the surface of the pan. Cook the crepe for 2 minutes until they turn golden brown. Flip and cook on the other side. For each crepe, spread Nutella on half the crepe and fold them in half. Repeat the process and fold it into a triangle. Garnish with cut-up strawberries, a drizzle of Nutella and icing sugar.
