1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
6 tablespoons butter, melted

NO-BAKE KEY LIME CHEESECAKE



No-Bake Key Lime Cheesecake image

This easy mousse-like treat blends the tartness of Key lime pie with the richness of cheesecake. Its graham-cracker crust sets in the freezer rather than the oven, and the traditional whipped-cream topping is folded right into the filling, along with fresh citrus juice and zest, cream cheese, and sweetened condensed milk. Chill it overnight, and wake up to a world of bliss.

Tips:

  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing it with the other ingredients. This will help to ensure a smooth and creamy dip.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular 9-inch pie plate. Just be sure to line the plate with parchment paper so that the dip is easy to remove.
  • The dip can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Just be sure to bring it to room temperature before serving.
  • Serve the dip with graham crackers, cookies, or fruit slices.
