Mini Key Lime Pies

Mini Key Lime Pies 

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs; crushed (about 12 squares)

3 T Sugar

3/4 stick butter (about 1/3 cup)

3 egg whites beaten

2 (14 oz) cans sweetened condensed milk

3/4 cup lime juice

1 T Lime zest

1/3 cup nonfat greek yogurt


Directions:

Crush the graham cracker squares in a food processor or place in a gallon size bag and roll with a rolling pin.

Add sugar and butter and mix into the crushed graham cracker.

Press 1 tablespoon graham cracker mixture into the bottom of a cupcake liner. I put 1 T in and then pressed down with 1/4 cup measuring cup. You have the option to bake this at 350 degrees for 8 minutes so that it can harden. I skipped this part and it turned out great!

In a sperate bowl, mix together egg whites, condensed milk, lime juice, lime zest, and greek yogurt. Mix well.

Fill the cupcakes about 3/4 of the way full with the mixture. Bake for 12-15 minutes and cool.

Top with whip cream and garnish with lime if desired. Store in the refrigerator.
