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.

KEY LIME TART

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Process graham crackers and 2 tablespoons sugar in a food processor until fine crumbs form; add butter. Process until combined. Transfer mixture to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom; pat into bottom and up sides. Place pan on a baking sheet, and bake until crust is fragrant and slightly colored, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine condensed milk, lime juice, egg yolks, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, and salt; whisk until smooth. Pour mixture into crust (warm or cool is fine), leaving 1/8 inch at the top; return to oven. Bake until filling is set around edge but still slightly loose in center, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Cool completely at room temperature; then refrigerate until chilled, at least 2 hours. Serve, garnished with zest, if desired.

MINI KEY LIME TART

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs, egg yolks, sugar and key lime juice together in a heavy-bottomed stainless-steel pan. Cook over medium low heat, stirring continuously, alternating between a whisk and rubber spatula, until the key lime curd has thickened to the consistency of pastry cream and coats the back of the spatula. Make sure you are continuously stirring the curd to prevent scrambling the eggs.
• Remove the key lime curd from the heat. Add the butter a little at a time, whisking continuously. Once the butter is completely melted and incorporated into the curd, add a little more butter until all the butter has been added to the curd. Season with a pinch of salt. Strain the key lime curd to make sure it is very smooth.
• Pour the key lime curd into the tart shells. Chill the tarts in the refrigerator until the lime curd has completely cooled. It will become thicker as it cools. Decorate tarts with whip cream, meringue or fresh fruit. Enjoy!

KEY LIME PIE TARTLETS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray 12 cups of a nonstick mini muffin pan with cooking spray.
• For the crust: Place the graham crackers in a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Add the sugar and salt and pulse to combine. With the motor running, drizzle in the butter and process until the mixture resembles damp sand. Divide the mixture evenly among 12 cups of the prepared muffin tin (about 1 1/2 tablespoons for each cup) and use a shot glass or your fingers to press it evenly into the bottom and up the sides. Bake until browned and firm to the touch, about 10 minutes. Set aside while you prepare the filling. (If the crusts fell during baking, you can reform them while they are still hot with a lightly greased shot glass or the back of a lightly greased small spoon.)
• For the filling: Beat together the yolks and lime zest in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until the yolks have lightened in color and thickened slightly, about 1 minute. Add the condensed milk and lime juice and beat until combined. Divide the mixture evenly among the tartlet crusts in the muffin pan, filling just below the top of each crust. Bake just until the filling has set, about 6 minutes. Place the pan on a wire rack to cool for about 30 minutes. Remove tarts from the pan (a small offset spatula works well here) and refrigerate until cold, at least 1 hour.
• Just before serving, beat the cream, confectioners' sugar and vanilla in a large bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Dollop the whipped cream on top of the tartlets and sprinkle with the lime zest.

• Make the filling: Whisk the egg yolks and lime zest in a medium bowl until tinted light green, about 2 minutes.
• Beat in the lime juice and condensed milk, then set aside at room temperature to thicken.
• Make the crust: Crush the graham crackers in a zip-top bag, then mix in the sugar and butter. Divide the crumbs between a 6-cup muffin tin and press down to form crusts.
• Bake for 8 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool for 15 minutes.
• Pour filling into the crusts, then bake until the center is slightly jiggly, 15-17 minutes.
• Let cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate until chilled, 2-3 hours.
• Make the whipped cream: In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream with an electric hand mixer and slowly add the sugar. Once soft peaks form, add the lime zest, then whip until firm peaks form.
• Top the mini pies with whipped cream.
• Enjoy!
