Make these cute and delicious mini key lime pies in a snap thanks to a few ingredients! They’re perfect for BBQ’s, holidays and more!
I will never forget the first time I had Key Lime Pie – on our honeymoon in Key West! It seemed like Key Lime Pie was everywhere! I have been making it for several years now and I always use the same recipe.
I recently decided to do something a little different and make the recipe into Mini Key Lime Pies!
I love mini desserts because they are perfect for BBQs in the summer or parties. Sometimes when you are faced with the decision of which dessert to enjoy, you want the chance to be able to have a sample of everything!
Throughout the holiday season, I am always using sweetened condensed milk — fudge and pumpkin pie are just a couple of desserts I use it in.
Odds are you’re unsure how to use it in the summer months!
It’s amazing how with just a few ingredients, Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk can create something so delicious!
How to make Mini Key Lime Pies:
You will need:
- 2 cans Eagle Brand® Sweetened Condensed Milk, 14 oz each
- 1 lime
- sour cream or greek yogurt
- heavy whipping cream
- powdered sugar
- vanilla extract
- 8 mini graham cracker crusts, premade
In a large bowl, whisk together sweetened condensed milk, lime juice and sour cream (or yogurt) in large bowl until blended. Stir in lime peel.
Pour the key lime filling into the crusts.
Bake for about 10 minutes, until tiny bubbles begin to form on surface of pies.
Let the mini key lime pies cool completely on a wire rack.
Next, top each mini key lime with homemade whipped cream and a piece of lime.
Chill your pies for at least 1 hour before serving. Best served the same day.
