No Bake Key Lime Cheesecake Parfaits
If you love cheesecake and key lime pie, you will absolutely love this recipe. The fact that it’s no bake, super easy to make, and unbelievably refreshing, makes this dessert a home run. Imagine a light cheesecake filling, the sweet and tart balance of key lime cookies, the subtle texture of graham cracker, sweetened condensed milk and zesty lime…this parfait is amazing. Feel free to use regular (Persian) lime juice and zest, no need to go crazy looking for the key lime version. Make this dessert ahead and serve individually or family style.
It’s basically the deconstructed version of our key lime cookie…
