Instructions
Creating the Easy Mini No Bake Key Lime Pie is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix well until the crumbs are evenly coated, forming a crumbly texture.
2. Form the Crust: Spoon the crumb mixture into mini pie pans or tart shells—press down firmly to form an even layer. Use the back of a spoon or your fingers to create a compact crust.
3. Make the Filling: In another bowl, whisk together sweetened condensed milk, Key lime juice, salt, and lime zest until smooth and well combined.
4. Fill the Shells: Pour the lime filling into each prepared mini crust, filling them evenly. Use a spatula to smooth the tops if needed.
5. Chill: Place the mini pies in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
These steps will guide you in creating these delightful mini Key lime pies effortlessly.
