Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Crust
  • 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 0.25 cups granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted
For the Filling
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz)
  • 0.5 cups key lime juice (fresh or bottled)
  • 1 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 2-3 zest of key limes for a zesty kick
Garnish
  • whipped cream
  • extra lime wedges or zest for a fancy touch

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  2. Press about 2 tablespoons of this mixture firmly into the bottoms of mini tart pans.
  3. In another bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and key lime juice. Stir until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold this into the key lime mixture.
  5. Spoon the key lime filling into your prepared crusts.
  6. Cover the mini pies with plastic wrap and let them chill in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or overnight.
  7. Once chilled, pop them out of the pans and top each pie with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of lime zest.

Notes

These mini key lime pies are great for prepping a day in advance. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can swap half of the cream with sour cream for a tangier flavor.
