Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 12 count mini graham cracker pie crusts store-bought
- 8 ounce cream cheese softened
- 14 ounce sweetened condensed milk one standard can
- 0.5 cup key lime juice fresh or bottled key lime juice
- 1 tablespoon lime zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cup whipped topping thawed; for topping
- 0.5 tablespoon additional lime zest for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a hand mixer until completely smooth and fluffy.
- Add the sweetened condensed milk and mix until well combined and silky.
- Mix in key lime juice, lime zest, and vanilla extract. Beat for 1 to 2 minutes until the filling thickens slightly.
- Spoon or pipe the filling evenly into the mini graham cracker crusts, smoothing the tops.
- Chill for at least 2 hours, or until set.
- Top each mini dessert with a dollop of whipped topping and a sprinkle of additional lime zest. Serve cold.
Notes
For the brightest flavor, use true key lime juice. If using regular limes, add a touch more zest. Desserts can be made a day ahead; add topping just before serving.
