Not all deserts are hot. Some are cool and some are quite cold. It depends upon the geographic location of the particular desert. Those deserts which are hot and dry have little cloud cover and humidity that tends to moderate the climate - slowing heating during the day and holding heat at night. Therefore, the deserts get hot quite quickly during the day and cool off quickly at night.
