Now, a bit more about me. When I was pregnant with my first child, I was living in Switzerland. Despite having an array of gourmet French pastries at my fingertips, the only thing I craved was cheesecake.
With no cream cheese or graham crackers, I was left with my non-fulfilled pregnancy cravings. It was a long 9 months. Upon returning to the states I vowed to 1. Never go through pregnancy abroad again and 2. Eat as much cheesecake as I want.
Needless to say, I have made several different cheesecake concoctions since then, however these Easy No Bake Mini Key Lime Cheesecakes may be my new favorite! For more cheesecake recipes check out our links below. Enjoy!
