Because who wants to turn on the oven in August?

Snackers, rejoice! The no-bake energy bite is everything you never knew was missing from your snack routine. Sure, the office vending machine will miss you, but you'll have confidently moved on.

These beautiful bites truly know no bounds. Care to get a little creative? Whip up a batch of the almond joy, cranberry pistachio or NUTELLA variations. (Yes. Nutella.)
