MINI KEY LIME PIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place mini graham cracker crusts onto a baking sheet.
• In a bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, sour cream, Key lime juice, and Key lime zest until smooth. Pour the filling into the graham cracker crusts, filling to the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until hot, 5 to 8 minutes. Refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, at least 1 hour. To serve, garnish each mini pie with a Key lime slice and a dollop of whipped cream topping.

CINNAMON TOAST CRUNCH CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Put the milk and 1 cup of the cereal in a medium bowl and let stand until the milk tastes like the cereal, about 30 minutes. Strain the flavored milk and reserve. Discard the soaked cereal.
• Crush the remaining 7 cups cereal in a resealable plastic bag with a rolling pin. Add 1/2 cup of the melted butter and 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar to the bag and shake until the cereal is coated. Pack into a 9-inch springform baking pan, pressing it about 1/2 inch up the sides. Bake until lightly toasted, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the gelatin with 1/4 cup water in a small microwave-safe bowl and set aside to soften, about 5 minutes.
• Whisk together the cinnamon, remaining 4 tablespoons melted butter and remaining 10 tablespoons brown sugar in a small bowl to combine; set aside.
• Beat the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, sour cream, vanilla, salt and lemon juice in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until completely smooth, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the cereal milk. Continue to beat on low until completely incorporated, about 2 minutes.
• Microwave the gelatin, stirring as needed, until melted, about 30 seconds. Add the gelatin to the cream cheese mixture and beat on medium speed to combine, about 30 seconds.
• Scoop out about a quarter of the batter into another medium bowl and stir in the cinnamon-butter mixture.
• Fill a 1/4-cup measure with cinnamon batter and pour into the center of the crust. Fill a 1/2-cup measure with vanilla batter and pour into the middle of the cinnamon batter. (The batter will spread; as you add alternating scoops, they will widen, forming concentric circles.) Repeat with the remaining batter, alternating between flavors and using the 1/4-cup measure for the cinnamon and the 1/2-cup measure for the vanilla, until all the batter is gone. Refrigerate until completely set, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
• Unmold the cheesecake. Pipe or dollop whipped cream around the top edge and top each dollop with a few pieces of cereal.
