I might be Whole30-ing, but no one else is around here so I'm taking advantage of the house guests and making some more of Nanny's recipes.
This recipe is a super easy one for summer, especially when you don't want to heat up the whole kitchen with the oven. Summer is definitely the time for ice box cake type desserts.
