Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 sheets Graham crackers
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 can Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.5 cup Fresh lime juice
- 2 teaspoons Lime zest
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
Instructions
Crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor, or place them in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin.
Melt the unsalted butter and mix it together with the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar until evenly combined.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of an 8x8-inch baking dish to form the crust. Place in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.
In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Add the sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, lime zest, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese and mix until fully combined and smooth.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the lime mixture until fully incorporated.
Spread the lime filling evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust.
Refrigerate the Lime Delight for at least 4 hours, or until set.
Serve chilled, garnished with extra lime zest or a thin lime slice, if desired.
