I love to keep some sort of dessert or sweet treat on hand for us to enjoy after dinner. We actually eat supper quite early at our house, so I like to clear the table and clean the kitchen after dinner, then make a pot of coffee and serve up a little something sweet a little while later. That’s why I love easy quick dessert recipe ideas that I can whip up with just a few ingredients and serve.

These key lime cookie cups are just the right size for an after dinner treat. They’re super easy to make and taste just like a delicious bite size version of homemade key lime pie.

Key Lime Cookie Cups

Ingredients

1 tube refrigerated sugar cookie dough

3 egg yolks

1/2 cup of fresh key lime juice

1 (14oz.) can sweetened condensed milk

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1 can refrigerated whipped cream topping

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Place about a teaspoon size ball of cookie dough into each cup of a 24-cup mini muffin pan.

Bake for 8 – 10 minutes until golden brown.

As soon as you remove them from the oven, gently press in the center of each cookie to form each cup.

Cool the cookie cups for a few minutes in the muffin pan then cool completely on a cooling rack.

To make the key lime filling:

For the filling, whisk together the egg yolks, key lime juice, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla over medium heat for about 15 minutes until warmed throughout.
