Description

These key lime pie shooters were an absolute hit at the Lush Cosmetics Anniversary Party in downtown Chicago. They are sure to be a hit at your next party too!

Whipped Cream is adapted from Wilton Stabilized Whipped Cream recipe.

Ingredients

  • FOR THE GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST:
  • 6 Tablespoons Granulated White Sugar
  • 3 cups Graham Cracker Crumbs
  • 10 Tablespoons Melted Butter
  • FOR THE KEY LIME CURD:
  • 6 whole Large Egg Yolks
  • 2 cans (14 Oz. Size) Sweetened Condensed Milk
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Fresh Key Lime Juice
  • FOR THE WHIPPED CREAM:
  • 4 teaspoons Cold Water
  • 1 teaspoon Unflavored Gelatin
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • ¼ cups Confectioners Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • Optional Garnishes: Graham Cracker Crumbs And Key Lime Zest

Preparation

For the graham cracker crust:
Add sugar and graham cracker crumbs to large bowl. Pour in melted butter and stir together until well mixed. Set aside.

For the key lime curd:
Whisk together egg yolks, two cans of sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract and key lime juice. Pour into a medium sized pot and heat it over medium-low heat to cook through the eggs. Keep on heat and stir for 12-14 minutes until nice and warm, stirring often. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

For the whipped cream:
Add cold water and gelatin into a saucepan and allow to sit until it thickens. Then heat it on the stove over low temperature stirring until the gelatin dissolves. Remove from heat and allow to slightly cool without setting.

In a large bowl, beat heavy cream, confectioners’ sugar and vanilla until slightly thick. Pour in gelatin mixture and beat on low until combined. Continue to whip until the cream stiffens up.

For the assembly:
Add one tablespoon of graham cracker mixture to the bottom of each shooter container (recipe makes a bunch). Follow up with one tablespoon of key lime curd. Finally add a scoop of whipped cream to the top of each shooter. Garnish with sprinkles of extra graham cracker crumbs and key lime zest if desired. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Makes 40-50 shooters. Happy baking!
