Key Lime Pie Bites
These easy key limes pie bites are the perfect sweet and zesty desserts! Full of tarty lime flavor and made with a coconut crust, it’s like being on a mini vacation.
I am not a key lime pie fan but I love these little guys! I usually can’t handle the tartness from the limes in key lime pies but my husband is obsessed with key lime pie! If we go out and can make it to the dessert menu, he will order that if it’s an option.
The first time I made these, they weren’t even close to what I was liking, the crust to crumbly and too much cream cheese in the filling.
Next try!
The second time came out sooo much better! I’m pretty sure I ate 2 in one sitting but no need to bring up the past. The filling is zesty but not in your face sour and super creamy. And the crust! My favorite part of it all! The crust is like a soft cookie! It’s moist and chewy and I can’t get enough of it!
Now I have a key lime pie recipe for both myself and my husband to enjoy!
I really hope you enjoy this! So, try this out and don’t forget to tag me on Instagram or Facebook. I would love to see your creation!
