3/4 cup lime juice
1 tbsp lime zest
1/2 tsp Splenda
1 tsp vanilla
Whipped Topping:
2 cups cold heavy whipping cream
1 cup Splenda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and oil pie pans.
2. Mix together crust ingredients, graham crackers, melted butter and Splenda. Portion out into 6 individual pies pans and press down on the bottom and around sides to form into pans. Bake in the oven for 5-7 minutes or until golden brown.

4. Once the crust is done baking remove from the oven and let come to room temp. Then add in filling to each pan. Place back in the oven to bake for another 15-17 minutes or until the filling is set. Remove from oven and let come to room temperature. Place in refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
5. Before serving top the pie with homemade whipped cream. With an electric hand mixer set on high blend the whipping cream, Splenda monk fruit, and vanilla extract.

Top with a lime wedge and/or lime zest and serve.
