Easy No Bake Key Lime Pie in a Jar is a super simple yet creamy delicious dessert packed with a little pucker power! These sweet treats are perfect for entertaining or a great take along for your next picnic!
Entertaining is a always such a pleasure for me, how about you? If you are anything like I am, you can work hours preparing for company making all the dishes that go into an event or get together. Sometimes you need a few tricks up your sleeve to help the process along and not be dog tired before your guests arrive.
That is why I love this dessert. It is simple, absolutely beautiful and tastes amazing. No matter what the occasion it’s the perfect dessert! Whether you are preparing an entire meal or taking along something sweet for an event, keep this one in your recipe box under DELICIOUS!
Recently my sister had an event with her church called Table Talk. It’s a night for ladies, with amazing worship, an inspiring speaker, laughter, friendship, fellowship, and an all around great time. Each table host decorates their table around a theme. Dinner is catered and each hosts is responsible for dessert.
I happily volunteered to help her out by making desserts and a Homemade Lemon Sugar Scrub as a table favor. We served this Easy Mason Jar Key Lime Pie along with Mini Almond Bundt Cakes with Fresh Blueberry Whipped Cream. They went wonderfully with her theme of “Fruit of the Spirit”. And they were a big hit as I know they will be for you and your bunch as well!
Easy Simple Ingredients Needed for Key Lime Pie Shooters
- 9 inch Graham Cracker Pie Crust
- Sweetened Condensed Milk
- Whipped Topping (like Cool Whip)
- Key Lime Juice (I use Nellie and Joe’s when I cannot get fresh key limes)
- 4 ounce Mason Jars, Jellie Jars, or Dessert Cups
How to make NO BAKE Key Lime Pie in a Jar
This dessert is so scrumptious and so stinking easy, but I ain’t tellin’ a soul if you won’t!
Step 1. Arrange your jars on a tray or baking sheet.
Step 2. Take a store bought graham cracker crust and crumble that thing right on up!
Now if you are morally opposed to using store bought you can certainly make your own by mixing 1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers, 1/3 cup sugar, and 6 tablespoons of melted butter. Bake for a few minutes or skip the baking, either way works.
Step 3. Mix sweetened condensed milk and the whipped topping together until is is combined and silky smooth.
Step 4. Pour key lime juice into the whipped condensed milk mixture and stir until blended.
Step 5. Equally distribute the graham cracker crumbles into the bottoms of the jars, about 1/2 inch high. I reserve a few crumbles to sprinkle on as a garnish.
Step 6. Spoon or pipe in the filling up to about 1/4 inch from the top of the jar.
Step 7. Place jars in the refrigerator to chill at least 3 hours.
Step 8. Remove and garnish to serve
Beautiful Ways to Garnish Key Lime Pie in a Jar
- Sprinkle the top with crushed graham cracker pie crust crumbles
- Top with crushed nuts – pecans, almonds, macadamia nuts or walnuts are delicious
- Press in a few mint leaves
- Sliced lime wedges are beautiful
- Dust with Lime Zest
Enjoy dessert and share your fruits with those you Love:
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. – Gal 5:22-23
