Step-by-Step Instructions
The first step in making these Heavenly No-Bake Mini Key Lime Pies is to prepare the crust. In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until everything is well mixed and resembles wet sand. Once combined, I love to take a tablespoon and press the crumb mixture into the bottom of each muffin tin or mini pie crust pan to form beautiful little crusts. It’s a bit of a workout, but the results are totally worth it! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
