An easy, light, no-bake dessert that everyone loves. Great for get-togethers and potluck dinners! Best made the day before and refrigerated until ready to serve.

Family approved! absolutely delicious! I added strawberries to the top to make it taste even better. next time I'm going to add kiwi fruit either on top or in place of the bananas. Also 4 bananas isn't necessary 3 is plenty! Will definitely be making this often! Read More

This is such a great desert. Simple and tasty. I make this for special occasions and it is always a big hit with no left overs. I generally will put toasted coconut on top instead of strawberries and we all really love it. Read More
