Mini Key Lime Cheesecakes in 5 minutes

I needed to quickly find an appropriate reward, that would encourage the boys, to get some projects done for me, much sooner than later, so I whipped up their favorite dessert in a convenient snack form, that prompted them to move fast on my projects, and we all got what we wanted in a short period of time.



                                                  I couldn't believe how quickly they devoured them...




Place a paper cup cake liner inside each cup cake pan, and place a ginger snap cookie in the bottom of each cup cake liner and set aside.















In a large bowl combine the cream  cheese, sweetened condensed milk, and lime juice till well blended. Stir in the vanilla then add the whipped topping till thick and smooth. Add drops of food coloring to desired color. Immediately pour some lime filling on top of each ginger cookie and garnish.

 Place in the freezer to cool for about 15 minutes. You can eat them immediately, but they need to be stored in the fridge or freezer. These freeze well, so you can make them ahead of time.

                                                                These were definitely a great motivator.......
