No-Bake Lime Cheesecake image

Being from the Sunshine State, I love any recipe containing citrus. This one, featuring lime, is quick to mix up and disappears almost as fast. Substitute orange juice, zest and slices for the lime to get another great cheesecake variation.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cheesecake didn't turn out. The filling was too runny.

I've tried many no-bake cheesecakes before, but this one is by far the best. The texture is creamy and smooth, and the lime flavor is perfectly balanced.

This no-bake lime cheesecake was a hit at my last party! The crust was perfectly graham crackery and the filling was light and fluffy. The lime flavor was refreshing and not too tart.
