Another very easy and perfect dessert for summer, which requires no baking whatsoever. We’re going through a heat wave here in Canada (33 degrees Celsius today) and as I’m not prepared to stop myself from eating dessert if I want to, I do my best to come up with quick and cold options.

Totally loving no-bake cookies during this heat. What a perfect sounding treat =)
They’re so quick to make! It can be a problem though as they are very addictive… You’ve been warned! 😉
Hi! Is it possible change the almond meal for Brazilian nut meal?
I have never tried and in fact, I have never used (or seen) Brazil nut flour. However, I assume the consistency is about the same, so I don’t see why not! If you do try, please let me know as I’m quite curious!
