Time for a cute dessert for tomorrows festivities!
These Mini Key Lime Pies are just as delicious as they are cute. Plus, the brite green and blue accents are perfect for any spring tablescape!
We used Tender Flake for our mini crusts, a perfect option if you're in a pinch. But if you prefer to bake your own crust, go for it!
For the filling:
Two 14-oz cans sweetened condensed milk
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon lime zest
¾ cup fresh lime juice (if you can find key limes, even better!)
For the topping:
1 cup cold heavy cream
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 teaspoon grated lime zest
Edible florals for garnish
How to:
Filling:
Pre heat your oven to 350°F.
In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, yogurt, lime zest, and lime juice. Carefully spoon your mixture into your mini crusts. Bake for 15 minutes, until the filling is almost set; it should still wobble a bit. Let cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then place in the refrigerator to chill thoroughly, about 3 hours.
Topping:
Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add the powdered sugar and beat until medium peaks form.
Again, carefully top the mini pies with the topping mixture.
Decorate with the lime zest and florals.
Store the pie in the refrigerator until ready to serve!
