Ingredients

  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 2 teaspoons lime zest
  • 1 tablespoon gelatin powder
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • Fresh mint leaves, for garnish
  • Lime wedges, for serving

How to Make Cheesy Lime Pudding Bites

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add the fresh lime juice and lime zest to the cream cheese mixture. Mix until well combined.
  3. In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over cold water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it blooms.
  4. In a small saucepan, gently heat the bloomed gelatin over low heat until fully dissolved. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  5. Slowly add the dissolved gelatin to the cream cheese mixture, stirring until fully integrated.
  6. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until no streaks remain.
  7. Transfer the mixture into small silicone molds or a lined mini muffin tin, smoothing the tops with a spatula.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
  9. Once set, carefully remove the pudding bites from the molds. Serve topped with fresh raspberries and garnished with mint leaves and lime wedges.

Tips for the Best Results

Make sure to soften the cream cheese fully for a smooth texture. If you prefer a sweeter bite, adjust the amount of powdered sugar to your taste. Ensure the gelatin is fully dissolved to avoid any lumps in the pudding.

Easy Variations

  • Swap out raspberries for strawberries or blueberries for a different flavor.
  • Add a splash of coconut milk for a tropical twist.
  • Incorporate a dash of vanilla extract for added depth.
  • Top with crushed nuts or seeds for a crunchy element.

What to Serve With It

Consider pairing these Cheesy Lime Pudding Bites with:

  • Crisp vegetable sticks like cucumber or bell pepper.
  • Light crackers or toasted baguette slices.
  • A refreshing salad with citrus dressing.
  • Sparkling water or a light cocktail.

Storage and Reheating

These pudding bites can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. They are best served chilled, so there’s no need for reheating.
