The cheesecake was made in a 9" springform pan, so you can imagine
that it easily sliced into 8 servings, more if you would prefer to
make really small slices. There were 6 people, including my friend
who didn't touch it. I had the equivalent of one-half slice and
nothing was left. Many of the other guests had seconds... I guess it
was good, if I say so myself. The funny thing about the recipe is
that it was one of the easiest desserts I've ever made. Here is the
recipe:

Easy Key Lime Cheesecake

Use one graham cracker crust.

1 lb cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 tsp finely grated fresh lime zest

In a food processor blend cream cheese, lime juice and condensed milk
until smooth. Add zest and pulse just until combined. Pour filling
into shell. Cool in fridge for at least 6 hours.
You can top it with Cool Whip® or whipped cream...and you can put
slices of lime on top for decoration
