17 No Bake Cookie Recipes For When Your Sweet Tooth Just Can't Wait

Nobody likes turning their oven on in the summer (or at all, when avoidable) but everyone loves cookies. So in a delicious compromise, here are 17 treats that require no heat at all.

Everything good starts somewhere, and no bake cookies started here with the perfect combination of chocolate, peanut butter and oats. 

Nutella No Bakes are the cookies who say, "Anything you can do I can do better" to Classic No Bakes and you want to think they're snotty and wrong, but actually they're right because they have Nutella. 

Don't let the small size of these cookie balls deceive you—there's tons of delicious flavor and crunch in these tiny treats. 

These rich cookies pack a nutty no-bake punch. The hardest part will be letting them dry for an hour. 

These gooey goobers pack in all the delicious flavors of fall, any time of the year, plus they're vegan and gluten-free. 

When the sad day comes that you run out of official Girl Scout Thin Mints, at least you can whip up this delicious version in 15 minutes without even turning the oven on. 

These chocolate cookie dough cups are kind of like cookie's odd cousin who dyed their hair and wears dumpster clothing but since there's still cookie dough inside they're accepted into the family. Also because they're damn delicious. 

These colorful little treats are for every time you wanted to eat a cake in cookie form, which, if you're like me is a lot of times. 

These powdered bites are vegan and gluten free and pair perfectly with a cup of coffee (or four). 

These cookies brag that they're healthy because they pack in protein powder, dried raspberries and natural sweeteners but they still taste like cookies soooooo, I'm all in. 

These lemon cookies offer a fresh citrusy take with a decadent white chocolate drizzle because you can never have too much chocolate. 

These no-bake nuggets also have the added bonus of being vegan and gluten free—cookies for everyone despite dietary restrictions! 

These paleo cookies are perfectly soft and chewy while also offering a fairly nutritious snack (as far as cookies go, at least). 

These butterscotch cookies will restore your faith in butterscotch after all those weird candies in your grandma's purse ruined them for you. 

So no, these don't look exactly like milk's favorite cookie, but these no-bake "raw oreos" follow all the fads as raw, vegan, gluten free, made without refined sugar, etc, etc. Get on the trend train and try 'em out. 

These little guys definitely look and taste like the cookies you know and love, but pack the protein and nutrients your mom knows and loves. Best of both worlds, mashed into a little no-bake bite. 

This no-bake cookie/turtle couldn't combine more of my favorite things: chocolate, coconut, dulce de leche!? Sorry for drooling...
