Ice Cream Pebbles No Bake Cheesecake and Marshmallow Stars

I love to entertain with desserts that are low maintenance and don’t require an oven!  This is a spin on my original No Bake Cheesecake that is always a hit.  Post Cereals just launched Ice Cream Pebbles, and this is the kind of ice cream that doesn’t melt— it’s yummy, crunchy bits of Pebbles in Rainbow Sherbet flavor.  I incorporated these into both the crust and the cheesecake!  You can use Oreo cookie crumbs or Graham Cracker crumbs for the crust— I tried both and liked the Oreo version the best.  To make it even easier, though, buy the premade crumb crusts– in regular size or even mini for little versions of the cheesecake.  Super easy, super cute, super delish!

You can also use Ice Cream Pebbles to make adorable Marshmallow stars which I put on Lollypop sticks.  Another really imaginative and fun thing you can do Ice Cream Pebbles that is a great activity for the kids and a great way to celebrate the 4th of July in rainbow Star Spangled fashion!
