Summertime is quickly approaching in many parts of the world. Many parents are busy with soccer and little league practice so there is little time to bake. With the hotter weather, these cool, easy, summertime desserts are perfect to get you out of the kitchen quickly.
Candy Mousse Pie
Cool Whip “Cheater” Pies
Mix 2 packages of pudding and 2 cups of milk thoroughly. Gently fold in 1 container of Cool-Whip. Spoon into a graham cracker crust. Chill.

Mix 1 package Jello with 2/3 cup boiling water. Mix until completely dissolved, about 2 minutes. Add ½ cup cold water and enough ice cubes to make 1 ¼ cup. Stir until slightly thickened. Remove any remaining ice. Gently fold in 1 container of Cool-Whip. You can also mix in some sliced fresh fruit (strawberries are luscious) at this point. Refrigerate about 10 minutes, until filling will mound. Spoon into a graham cracker crust. Chill at least 2 hours.
Banana Pudding
Raspberry Salad
I usually double the recipe and it makes a nice big bowl. Yummy!
Jello Salad

Stir gelatin with boiling water in large bowl for two min until dissolved. Stir in cold water. Add ice cream and stir until smooth. Pour into serving bowls (or one big bowl, plastic cups would be great). Chill 3 hours.

Melt the candy bar just enough in the microwave to where you can stir it up, but it's not boiling hot. Mix it with the Kool Whip, and then pour into the oreo crust. You can either chill it in the fridge or freezer; it's great either way.
