This dessert is absolutely amazing, if you like Key lime pie. Tangy, creamy with sweet crumbs. 
I have had regular Key lime pie many times but this time I wanted to make a cheesecake variation on Key lime pie 
to be served in individual dessert jars. 
Key lime cheesecake in a jar
8 servings
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
3 tbsp butter, melted
2 tsp icing sugar

Filling
8 ounce cream cheese, softened
1 can (14-oz.) sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup key lime juice, regular limes also works (6-8 limes)
1 cup whipped cream
Lime slices and graham craker crumbs for garnish


Crush graham crackers in a foodprossesor or with a rolling pin. Mix together 3/4 cup crumbs, 
icing sugar and melted butter in a bowl.
Spoon 1-2tbsp of mixture into 8 induvidual desserts bowls, press lightly down.
With an electric mixer on low speed, beat the cream cheese until creamy, about 30 seconds. 
Add the condensed milk and key lime juice and mix on medium speed intil well combined. 
Whip cream until stiff peaks form. Fold in 1 cup of whipped cream into to the mixture.
Spoon mixture evenly into the dessert bowls. Cover  with plastic  wrap and set in the fridge 
for at least 2 hours before serving.
Garnish with lime slices and sprinkle the rest of the crumbs and serve.
