步骤

Add graham crackers to a food processor and pulse into fine crumbs. Mix with melted butter, brown sugar, vanilla and a pinch of salt until fully combined.

In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar, vanilla and sweetened condensed milk and mix again until creamy. Fold in lime juice and lime zest.

In a separate bowl, whisk together cheesecake pudding mix and cold milk for 1-2 minutes until slightly thickened. Fold into the cream cheese mixture.

In another bowl, beat heavy cream, powdered sugar and vanilla bean paste until stiff peaks form. Fold HALF of the whipped cream into the lime filling and reserve the remaining whipped cream for the top layer.

In a deep glass dish or trifle dish, press down a thick layer of graham cracker crumbs, then top with a thick layer of key lime filling. Refrigerate for 20 minutes, then repeat the layers. Finish with the remaining whipped cream.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 5-6 hours, or overnight for best results.

Before serving, top with lime zest, lime slices and extra graham cracker crumbs. Enjoy!
