Scale
1 cup crushed graham crackers
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup key lime juice

Instructions
Prepare the crust by combining the crushed graham crackers and melted butter in a mixing bowl. Press the mixture firmly into mini pie tins and set aside.
In a separate bowl, mix the sweetened condensed milk, key lime juice, and lime zest until fully combined and slightly thickened.
Spoon the key lime filling into each pie crust and smooth the surface with a spatula.
Cover the mini pies with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 120-240 minutes until set.
Top each mini pie with whipped cream and garnish with lime slices or zest if desired.
Savor and enjoy!
Notes
For best flavor, use fresh key lime juice and allow adequate chilling time for the filling to set.
