We've discovered the easiest ice-cream recipe ever (1)

There's nothing more indulgent during the summer months then tucking into a refreshing summer desert, swirled with ice cream, rich with fruit or full of nutty goodness.

Now we can finally host summer soirees in our gardens, we have more reason than ever to whip up zingy seasonal desserts to indulge in both with friends and family and by ourselves (both equally valid!) — and best of all? They'll taste great frozen too, so you can make a big batch and spend the season working your way through them.

We've rounded up the best desserts to try this summer so flick through and find the one that calls out to you, from boozy ice lollies — that make an ideal Sunday afternoon treat — to a show-stopping raspberry meringue bombe that will cool you down from the inside out.

Spoons, forks, hands at the ready, people — summer dessert season is upon us.
