Key Lime Pie Cheesecake Dip – A sweet and tangy dip that tastes just like key lime cheesecake! This dip is no bake and super simple to whip up. The perfect cool and creamy summer dessert!
THIS RECIPE HAS BEEN SO POPULAR WE MADE A VIDEO! CHECK IT OUT BELOW!
I’m officially craving anything that tastes like summer right now!
It’s been incredibly warm here and since it’s too early in the year to go swimming and cool off…..I’ll just cool off with this creamy key lime pie dip.
Logic. Right?
But, really, my kids have been begging me to get one of those plastic pools from the store and fill it up for them.
Sadly, the answer has been no.
I did have to laugh at the thought of two almost teenage (cringe) kiddos in a tiny plastic pool!
Pretty sure they weren’t thrilled with my dip instead of pool offering.
I personally think it’s a perfectly fair compromise.
This dip is so delicious….just give me a spoon and let me dive in, please.
It’s not overly sweet which I like. Key lime things are supposed to have a prominent tang in my book.
Best part about this dip? 10 minutes or less to put together. Boom. Snack time.
It makes a decent amount too, and no matter how badly you want to eat the entire bowl of silky goodness, you should probably share. Because, it’s gonna be your favorite dip to take to all of your summer cookouts and parties this year.
Enjoy!

So delicious.. made for a work event last summer…was huge hit. Have a company bbq this friday and staff scratched off the salad i planed3to make and write kiwi dip there instead. Lol guess im naking it again. I presented mine in a clear dish and put kiwi slices around the paremeter of the bowl. Looked beautiful.
I split the recipe in half, as it was for a smaller group function. Served with strawberries, vanilla wafers, and graham crackers. Was a huge hit!
I made this for Thanksgiving tomorrow and I couldn’t stop myself from eating some. It’s so delicious and I’m so excited for my family to try it!
Thanks Jenna! I can’t ever stay out of it either 😉

You could maybe do powdered stevia and almond milk and organic cream cheese?
Do you use this as an appetizer or dessert?
Martha
Either one 🙂
I used Truvia instead of sugar and also used heavy cream. It turned out great! So tasty!
Why would you sub the sugar then use heavy cream ? Judy asking thanks
Would the sugar be able to be cut down to a 1/4 cup or less?
Hello, How big are the limes that you used? Any idea how much juice was squeezed out of the limes? The limes I have currently are quite large, probably 1.5 times bigger than your normal lime.
Hi! My limes were fairly small. I’d start with one if yours are large, and then taste test from there for preference.
I have a bottle of key lime juice. How much should I use?
I would go for 1-2 Tablespoons, then taste from there for preference.
I’m planning to make this with key lime juice as well. How much did you end up using?
