Key lime juice 1/2 cup fresh
Sweetened condensed milk 1 can (14 oz)
Whipped topping 1 cup (store-bought or homemade)
Granulated sugar 1/4 cup
Instructions
Mix graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press 1-2 tablespoons of mixture into the bottom of 6-8 dessert cups.
In a bowl, beat cream cheese and key lime juice until smooth. Fold in sweetened condensed milk and granulated sugar until fully combined.
Gently fold in whipped topping to create a light, airy texture. Spoon filling into prepared cups, filling to the top.

Chill longer (up to overnight) for firmer texture.
