Key Lime Pie

My brother's birthday was a few days ago and he LOVES key lime pie. I wanted a simple recipe because I did not have a lot of prep time and I also wanted a pretty presentation.

Delicious, no-bake key lime pie:

1- 14 ounce can of sweetened condensed milk
1/3 cup of key lime juice (it took me about 12 limes)
4 ounces of cream cheese
Graham cracker crust- crumbled

topping:
whipped cream...recipe from a previous post found here
lime zest

1. Juice key limes- about 12 limes
2. Combine condensed milk, key lime juice and cream cheese
(If it is too sweet, add more lime or lime zest. If it is too tart, add more sugar)
3. Scoop filling into a martini glass
4. Take crumbled graham cracker and add a layer on top of the filling
5. Add whipped cream on top of the graham cracker
6. Sprinkle lime jest on top and add lime for garnish
7. Chill for a few hours and serve!
8. Ta Da! Easy Peasy...
