KEY LIME CHEESE BALL:2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, room temperature
2/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup graham crackers (coarsely crushed, cinnamon flavor)
2 T. key lime juice (she uses 2-3 real limes)
2 T. key lime zest (grated) (she uses the same limes she got the juice from)
Combine all ingredients (except for the graham cracker crumbs) in a mixing bowl until well combined. Form into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for 2 hours until ball is solid. Remove cheese ball from the fridge and roll in the graham cracker crumbs. Serve with extra cinnamon graham crackers, baked croissants and pound cake.
**Instead of forming it into a cheese ball, Sister Beck just put it in a bowl, sprinkled the graham cracker crumbs on top and served with cinnamon graham crackers. It is softer this way, but still delicious!
