Steps:
- For the crust: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Spray the bottoms of 24 cupcake-size silicon molds with cooking spray (or two 12-cup muffin pans) and place them on a baking sheet.
- To make the crust, in a small mixing bowl, stir together the crumbs, sugar and melted butter, then press the mixture firmly into the bottom of each mold. Set aside.
- For the filling: Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and sour cream until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the sugar, lime zest, lime juice, cornstarch and vanilla and beat until smooth.
- Pour the filling into the prepared crusts. Bake until the tops are lightly brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool, then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
- For the sauce: Meanwhile, to make the sauce, process the raspberries, sugar and lime zest in a food processor or blender until smooth. Chill for at least 1 hour before drizzling over the cheesecake and serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease 2 mini muffin pans and line with fancy paper liners.
- Combine the cookies, butter, and lime zest in a bowl until evenly moistened; press into the bottom of the prepared pans. I find a shot glass works wonderfully for this.
- Bake in the preheated oven 5 minutes; allow to cool.
- In a large bowl, stir together the cream cheese and sugar. Gradually stir in the eggs, key lime zest, key lime juice, and vanilla extract. Pour the mixture into the prepared cups, filling almost to the top. Spoon a drop of preserves on top of each one. Swirl preserves into the cream cheese mixture with a toothpick.
- Bake in preheated oven 13 to 15 minutes. Allow to cool completely before removing from pans, 6 to 8 hours.

Tips:
- For the creamiest key lime filling, make sure the cream cheese and heavy cream are very cold before whipping.
- If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a 9-inch pie plate instead. Just be sure to trim the edges of the graham cracker crust so that it fits snugly in the bottom of the plate.
- To make the raspberry sauce ahead of time, simply combine the raspberries, sugar, and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened. Let cool completely before storing in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- For a more elegant presentation, you can pipe the whipped cream onto the top of the key lime pie. To do this, fit a pastry bag with a star tip and fill it with the whipped cream. Pipe the whipped cream in a spiral motion, starting from the outside and working your way towards the center.
Conclusion:
This key lime dessert with raspberry sauce is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. The creamy key lime filling is perfectly complemented by the tart raspberry sauce, and the graham cracker crust adds a nice crunch. This dessert is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it!
