Key Lime Cheesecake Dip
This year I went with a simple summer dessert recipe for Key Lime Cheesecake Dip for the big celebration in our small town.
It’s Brightfest weekend here in my neck of the woods!
I realize this is not exciting to you unless you happen to live around here đŸ˜‰
It’s an awesome festival and parade to benefit our local fire department.
Bonus was that my daughter was in the parade this year for band and guard (she did AMAZING).
We always go to our friend’s house to watch the parade, and everyone brings a dish.
It’s a light and refreshing dessert that’s not overly sweet.
It’s super easy to make and only has four ingredients.
Seriously desserts are not my specialty,
I am more of a cook than a baker.
So most of the desserts I make require very little effort and little to no baking đŸ™‚
How to make Key Lime Cheesecake Dip
Key Lime Cheesecake Dip starts with a block of cream cheese at room temp, cool whip (also at room temp), powdered sugar, and key lime juice.
You can use fresh key limes, but my store was out of them so I used a bottle of key lime juice.
I also zested a regular lime over top…gotta make it look pretty, right?!
I also added some lime wedges so people knew it had lime in it.
My very favorite was the graham cracker sticks to dip!
My daughter really loved the pineapple and strawberries.
If you are bringing this to a party or picnic, I would recommend bringing the graham cracker sticks or vanilla wafers in the box and setting them next to the dip right before serving.
I put everything on a plate and covered with foil.
The graham sticks lost a little bit of their crisp, but the dip was still a hit đŸ™‚
Key Lime Cheesecake Dip was a hit at the party!
