You might be thinking, wait is this a cheesecake or cream pie? It’s both and it is delicious! A nice simple refreshing dessert that everyone can enjoy, including you. This key lime cheesecake cream pie takes only a few minutes to prepare. It will require at least 4 hours to set in the fridge, so be sure to make it well in advance if you are entertaining. Serves 8 at 8 smart points on all 3 MyWW programs.
Key lime cheesecake cream pie
8SP blue, green & purple
Ingredients
- 1 ready made graham pie crust
- 8 oz light cream cheese, softened
- 2 Tbsp icing sugar, confectionary sugar
- 1 heaping cup fat free cool whip
- 1/4 cup fresh squeezed lime juice
- 1 Tbsp fresh lime zest
Instructions
- In a bowl using an electric mixer, cream together the cheese, icing sugar, cool whip and lime juice till well blended. Stir in the lime zest, leaving a little aside to sprinkle on top.
- Pour filling into the graham crust then let set in the fridge for at least 4 hours, you can even prep this the night before just cover it with some foil if you do.
- The texture will be much creamier than a regular cheesecake and if you do not let it set long enough it will be too hard to cut into servings.

Oh my gosh, it looks amazing! So tender and moist! It practically makes my mouth water! No matter if it is a cream pie or a cheesecake – it’s delicious anyway. I’m afraid, it’s the end of my diet ahaha 😀 I’m gonna buy all the ingredients on the weekends and make this lime pie. I’ll let you know how I like it.
Thank you for sharing such wonderful recipes, Kate! And Happy New Year!
Hi Anna, I hope you enjoy it 🙂 Happy New Year!
Hi There!
Just wondering, I put all the ingredients in my weight watchers app and it shows
the points to be 10 and I noticed you have 8. Do you know for sure this recipe is
8 pts. cuz it sure looks good and I want to make but I want to make sure I track
the right points. I am on the blue plan.
Thanks so much!
Erin
Hi Erin, all I can go off is what my WW app tells me when I enter the ingredients, perhaps you used a different brand of ingredient? Here is a breakdown in my points, cream cheese- 20, cool whip- 7, graham crust- 30 and icing sugar- 6 hope that helps
Ok Thank you ! How many points would it be if there are only 6 servings instead of 8?
Hi Erin, I am not too sure, I only know the points as the recipe states and for 8 servings, you’d need to build the recipe in the WW app and change the serving size to 6
THIS is the BEST Key Lime recipe ever!!!! Simple ingredients and oh my goodness such flavor. Not overly sweet but just right. On my PP its only 4 points and well worth it. Thank-you so much for sharing your recipes. You are certainly helping me stay on the WW program. ~
Hi Helga, I am so glad you enjoyed the key lime pie 🙂 Thank you for your kind words, good luck on your journey!
