Time 7m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs (or a mixture) or 1/2 cup gingersnap crumbs (or a mixture)
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon sugar
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 lime, zest of
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice or 2 tablespoons key lime juice
1 egg
1 tablespoon potato starch (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine crumbs with butter and 1 tbsp sugar; stir until sandy in texture. Divide between two pint-sized Mason jars or large coffee mugs. Pack crumbs down into bottoms.
  • Stir remaining ingredients together until smooth. Divide between vessels. Place in microwave for 2 minutes on high (if your microwave does not have a rotating plate, turn vessels 90° after 1 minute). Continue to cook for 30-second intervals until the tops appear dry.
  • Transfer to refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving. The top will develop a dimple as it cools; top with a dollop of whipped cream to cover it up.
