Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 3/4 cup key lime juice
- Fresh whipped cream for garnish
- Lime slices for garnish
- 12 mini mason jars
Instructions
- Combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until the mixture resembles wet sand.
- Spoon about a tablespoon into each mini mason jar and press firmly to form the crust.
- Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to set.
- Whip heavy cream and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form, then set aside.
- Beat softened cream cheese until smooth.
- Add sweetened condensed milk and mix until creamy.
- Fold in the whipped cream gently.
- Slowly add key lime juice while mixing until smooth.
- Pipe or spoon filling into jars over the crust.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Notes
Make sure cream cheese is fully softened for a smooth filling. Fresh key lime juice gives the best flavor, but bottled works fine. These can be made up to 3 days ahead and stored in the fridge.
