Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 16 oz Cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cups Powdered sugar
- 1.5 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 1 cups Lemon curd
- 1 cups Lime curd
- 1 tbsp Fresh lime zest
- 1 tbsp Fresh lemon zest
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x9-inch baking dish to form an even crust. Chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to set.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture gently until fully combined.
Spread half of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust.
Spoon the lemon curd over the cream cheese mixture layer and spread it into an even layer.
Spread the remaining cream cheese mixture on top of the lemon curd in an even layer.
Spoon the lime curd across the top layer and gently spread it to cover the surface evenly.
Sprinkle fresh lemon zest and lime zest on top as a garnish.
Chill the dessert in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight to set. Serve chilled and enjoy!
