KEY LIME MINIS

Key Lime Mini Cheesecakes

Key Lime Minis or Raw Cashew Mini Cheesecakes is a refreshing and guilt free summer dessert. Absolutely delicious and satisfying too.

As I mentioned in my previous post, the CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT CAKE that I made it for my daughter’s birthday, I will be making something for my son in law’s BD, in August, I just don’t know what yet. Also, his sister made the BD cake as I predicted, because she always does, lol! Nevertheless, I didn’t know that he loves key lime pie, therefore my daughter asked me to make these Key Lime Minis for him.

I never made any key lime dessert before, but I will for sure again! Their flavor is truly different from regular limes and if you can’t find them in your supermarket, you may use Key Lime Extract. However, I am not sure how it works because I have not tried that yet. Fortunately, one of our local supermarkets offers the real Florida Key Limes, so I didn’t need to.
