Description

Delightful bite-sized treats bursting with tangy key lime flavor and creamy texture, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup key lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until fully combined.
  3. Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of muffin pans to create your crusts.
  4. In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  5. Gradually add in the sweetened condensed milk, key lime juice, and vanilla extract, mixing until everything is well combined.
  6. Pour the creamy filling into the crusts, filling them about three-quarters full.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the filling is set.
  8. Allow the mini pies to cool on a wire rack, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

For a richer flavor, consider adding grated lime peel to the filling. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
