Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • mini mason jars
  • Measuring Cups
  • hand mixer

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs about 8 cracker
  • 3 tbsp melted butter
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • pinch of salt
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 3/4 cup powered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • zest of 2 limes
  • 3 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1 cup whipped topping or freshly whipped cream

Optional

  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt for extra tang

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, salt, and melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  • Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the mixture into the bottom of each mini mason jar or dessert cup and press it down firmly with the back of a spoon to form the crust. Place the jars in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until completely smooth and creamy.
  • Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
  • Stir in the lime zest and fresh lime juice and continue mixing until the filling is light and fluffy.
  • Gently fold in the whipped topping until fully incorporated. If using, fold in the Greek yogurt to add extra tang and creaminess.
  • Spoon or pipe the lime cheesecake filling evenly over the chilled graham cracker crusts, smoothing the tops with a spoon.
  • Cover and refrigerate the jars for at least 2–3 hours, or until the cheesecake filling is firm and well chilled.
  • Before serving, top each jar with whipped cream, a sprinkle of lime zest, and enjoy!
