If you love cakes but don’t always have time to make and bake them, these unbaked cakes are a great alternative.
They’re just as sweet and delicious (and sometimes spicy and decadent) as traditional pastries, but you’ll usually have to work a lot less.

And there are plenty of flavor options to choose from
.
When people think of unbaked cakes, they usually think of “Oreo cake,” “cream cheesecake,” and maybe “lemon ice box cake.”
That’s usually as far as your imagination takes them.
But after reviewing these unbaked cake recipes, you’ll have a much larger selection to suit any cravings you have.

1.
Unbaked
peanut butter cake If peanut butter is your thing, this
six-ingredient, 20-minute peanut butter cake is dessert for you
.
All you’ll need to make it is cream cheese, powdered sugar, peanut butter, milk, whipped topping, and a graham cookie cake crust.
It is sweet, creamy and supremely peanut buttery
.
And if you prefer a combination of peanut butter chocolate or peanut butter caramel, you can always add those extra treats on top
.
They will also make it look better
.
2. Unbaked Twix Cake Most
people love Twix because they have smooth, creamy chocolate exteriors and crispy, caramel-filled wafers
.
This cake is not exactly a Twix, but it tastes like one and retains the chocolate and caramel flavor and the soft and crunchy texture
.
Plus, you’ll add a generous serving of broken Twix bars and chocolate and caramel ice cream sauces to the top. It looks fantastic and tastes even better.

Unbaked
Banana Cream Cake

The rind of the vanilla wafer is crunchy and perfectly complements the banana cream pudding

Don’t forget to stack it with whipped cream and fresh banana slices.

4. Millionaire
cake
This fruity and extremely moist cake is rich but not too sugary
.
Thanks to the crushed pineapple, maraschino cherries and whipped cream, it also has a distinctly tropical flavor

don’t worry; It’s not so soft and smooth that you can’t tell you’re eating it.
Graham cookie crust and chopped walnuts also add a delicious bit of crunchiness

.
7. Bites
of Unbaked Apple Pie
These bite-sized cakes are a mouthful of divine delight
. You’ll make the traditional apple pie filling
with apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, nutmeg, allspice and everything in between
.
But instead of putting that filling on a big cake, you’ll spoon it in crispy cups of phyllo dough.
Top each with a tablespoon of whipped cream, and you have a little taste of heaven on your plate.
8. One
of
the things I like most about unbaked cakes is that they usually require few ingredients, but it seems that they required a lot of hard work
. This
Butterfinger cake is a good example
.
All you’ll need is cream cheese, creamy peanut butter, vanilla extract, powdered sugar, Butterfingers, Cool Whip and the pie crust of your choice.
It takes 15 minutes to do, but it seems like it has a lot to do. It will impress everyone who tries it, so don’t reveal the secret of how easy it is to do.

Unbaked pineapple cream cake is quintessence “Oh no! I forgot!” dessert. It takes 5 minutes to prepare and uses only six simple ingredients.
Like most cakes on the list, it needs a few hours to cool down, but it can’t be beaten for last-minute convenience (as long as it’s not too last minute, of course).
11.
Unbaked Key Lime Cake
If you prefer your desserts to have a little acidity, this tasty Key lime cake is an excellent choice
.
For the crust, you won’t need anything but graham cookie crumbs and butter
.
The filling of the cake is almost as simple: cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, lemon zest and granulated sugar.
Gather it in
20 minutes or less, add a few slices of limes to make it look good and stick it in the fridge to cool for 4 hours.
12. Unbaked pineapple colada cream
cake
I’m not going to start this with a mandatory “If you like piña coladas” joke because seriously, who doesn’t love piña coladas? I’m
just going to assume you do and share this incredibly creamy and amazing cake with you. And yes, there is also a lot of pineapple here.

sour, sweet, light and summer-perfect desserts, then you probably already know everything about lemon ice box cake

21. Unbaked mint chocolate chip cake
Of course, if you prefer the flavor of Andean mints to pure mint, this mintmint delight might be the best vacation option

It boasts the same incredibly delicious chocolate and mint flavor, but this one tastes a little more like a real mint from the Andes
.
Both are great choices for your family’s Christmas cake
.
22. Fluffernutter Chocolate Cake
It’s probably no surprise that chocolate fluffernutter cake is chocolatey, fluffy and wonderfully nutty, thanks to peanut butter
