It does not get any simpler than this! You are going to love how amazing it tastes. Despite how easy it is, it tastes like you spent a ton of time on this creamy dessert.

No bake strawberry icebox cake is even better made in advance!

I like to refrigerate this dessert for at least 4 hours before serving. It gives the flavors time to blend and the graham crackers time to soften. Yum!

It’s even better if you make it the day before. You can make it and put in the fridge the day before you want to eat it. Simply take out when you are ready to serve.

No bake desserts are the best! Don’t let this simple cake fool you! It tastes amazing.

It’s great at potlucks, BBQ’s, parties and more! It’s also very inexpensive to make! We also loveSugar Cookie Fruit Pizza Recipefor another easy recipe idea!

I love the ones with lids especially if I am taking this dessert somewhere. This set from Wilton is my favorite.

I also like to take this dessert when I’m taking a meal to new moms or those recovering from surgery. In those instances, I use disposable 8×8 pans to they can just be tossed.

This is so handy so no one has to worry about washing and returning. Plus, they have the ones with the lids as well. They are so convenient.
