Como fazer Key Lime Cheesecake Squares

  1. **Crust:**
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  3. In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ½ cup vanilla wafer crumbs, and ¼ cup finely ground almonds.
  4. Cut in ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, using a pastry blender or fork, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Spray a 9x9 inch baking pan with vegetable cooking spray.
  6. Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  7. Bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  8. **Filling:**
  9. In a large bowl, beat 16 ounces (two 8-ounce packages) softened cream cheese with 1 cup granulated sugar and 2 large eggs until smooth and creamy using an electric mixer.
  10. Add ½ cup key lime juice (or regular lime juice), 2 tablespoons grated key lime zest (or regular lime zest), and 2 tablespoons tapioca starch. Beat until well combined and smooth.
  11. Pour the filling evenly over the baked crust.
  12. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
  13. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  14. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or preferably longer) before cutting into squares.
  15. Garnish with lime wedges, fresh strawberries, or maraschino cherries, if desired.
