Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 large 8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
3 limes
2/3 c sugar or splenda
2 eggs
1 graham cracker pie crust
1 dash(es) green food coloring, opt

Steps:

  • 1. zest the limes and juice them.
  • 2. with electric mixer, blend cream cheese with sugar in a large bowl until smooth
  • 3. blend in lime zest, and juice
  • 4. beat in eggs one at a time, blending well after each
  • 5. add a drop of the food coloring
  • 6. pour into crust and bake 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
  • 7. cool, slice and serve with sweetened sour cream or cool whip.

Tips:

  • Use fresh limes. Fresh limes provide the best flavor for this cheesecake. If you can't find fresh limes, you can use bottled lime juice, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Make sure your lime zest is finely grated. This will help the lime flavor evenly distribute throughout the cheesecake.
  • Don't overbeat the cream cheese. Overbeating the cream cheese can make the cheesecake dense and crumbly. Beat the cream cheese just until it is smooth and creamy.
  • Use a springform pan. A springform pan is the best type of pan to use for this cheesecake because it allows you to easily remove the cheesecake from the pan once it is baked.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath. Baking the cheesecake in a water bath helps to prevent the cheesecake from cracking. To create a water bath, place a baking dish filled with hot water on the oven rack below the cheesecake.
  • Chill the cheesecake for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the cheesecake to set properly and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

This cool lime cheesecake is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It is light and refreshing, with a delicious lime flavor. The cheesecake is also easy to make, and it can be prepared ahead of time. So next time you are looking for a delicious and easy dessert, give this cool lime cheesecake a try!
