Рецепт Margarita Ice Box Cake Recipe for a No-Bake Flavorful Summer Dessert
Margarita Ice Box Cake Recipe for a No-Bake Flavorful Summer Dessert
If a margarita and a cheesecake had a child, it would be this ice box cake. Cold and creamy, but with the tang of lime and the saltiness of a salted glass rim. Bonus: No BAKING! Yes, that’s right – you don’t even turn on your oven for this beauty. Just a few minutes of prep and then stash in the chill chest for awhile and it’s Happy Hour for your taste buds!
This simple recipe will surprise you – it seems very sophisticated, and yet your 8 year old could make this. With you handling the knife work, of course. I like the convenience of the margarita mix – and I used the Williams Sonoma brand – just the right tang and sassy-ness!
We had this dessert on the deck tonight and between 8 of us, we ate the whole thing. And licked our plates. Ok, not really. But we wanted to. Oh, heck – I say go ahead and lick away!
