Description

Indulge in the perfect balance of sweet and tart with this creamy, dreamy Key Lime Crack dessert. Made with just a few simple ingredients, this no-bake treat comes together in just 5 minutes for a quick and easy tropical delight.


Ingredients

– 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk

– 1/2 cup key lime juice (about 20 key limes)

– 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened

– 1 cup graham cracker crumbs

– 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted


Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, beat the sweetened condensed milk and key lime juice until well combined.

2. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth.

3. Gradually fold the cream cheese into the key lime mixture until fully incorporated.

4. In a small bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until the crumbs are evenly coated.

5. Press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of an 8×8-inch baking dish.

6. Spread the key lime filling evenly over the crust.

7. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.

8. Serve chilled, garnished with additional key lime slices or zest, if desired.

Notes

For a firmer texture, you can use 1 cup of heavy cream instead of the cream cheese. Whip the cream until stiff peaks form, then fold it into the key lime mixture. This will create a fluffier, mousse-like consistency.
