  • Total Time: 2 hours 15 minutes
  • Yield: 8 mini pies 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • ½ cup fresh lime juice (preferably key limes)
  • 1 tablespoon lime zest
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • Optional: lime slices and mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Combine graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar in a bowl. Stir in melted butter until evenly coated. Divide among mini pie molds or ramekins, press down to form a crust, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  2. Whisk together sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, and lime zest in a separate bowl. Pour over the chilled crust and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until set.
  3. Beat heavy cream with powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread or pipe over the set lime filling for a fluffy topping.
  4. Garnish with lime slices and mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately or store in the fridge for later enjoyment.

Notes

  • Chill the assembled pies for at least 2 hours for optimal flavor and texture.
  • Use fresh lime juice for the best citrus flavor; bottled lime juice can be substituted if necessary.
  • Decorate with lime slices and mint for a beautiful presentation.
