Summer just wouldn’t be summer without a Jello inspired treat.  Think it takes a lot of effort to make a dessert that will “wow” everyone?  Let me assure you that it doesn’t take a lot of effort to whip up these cool summer desserts.  For example, most of them are simply no-bake! Additionally, a few of these treats are perfect for making for kids.  I can remember my own mom making me Jello when I was growing up.  She just added a dollop of whipped cream and I thought it was the fanciest thing ever.  Not only was it super easy to make, but it stuck with me as a childhood memory.  As a result, I also make this for my own kid sometimes.  He loves it and is amazed that you can just add water and have a great dessert.

As a matter of fact, there are tons of great Jello recipes online.  Jello treats are the perfect summer dessert on those super hot days.  Besides that, they are just fun to make.  As an added bonus, most of them require minimal ingredients.  For one thing, nobody likes to be in a hot kitchen .  Especially during the summer time.  Likewise, these recipes are also time savers.  Then you can spend that extra time doing other things you enjoy.  Not to mention these recipes are also mostly on the cheap!  Not only does it save time, but you also save money.  And who doesn’t like saving money?  I know I do!

Are you ready to try some Jello treats?  If so, then check out these recipes below for a little summer dessert inspiration.  Surely you will find a favorite, too!  Additionally, if you know of a great Jello recipe not listed here, link it up in the comments!
