Ingredients

    Crust:
    1 1/2 cups Graham-cracker crumbs (about 9 double-square crackers, crushed)
    3 Tbsp. Margarine, melted

    Filling:
    2 eggs, separated
    1/8 tsp salt
    2 (8oz) packages neufchatel cheese, softened
    1/3 cup sugar
    .42 cup splenda (enough to fill to3/4 line)
    3 drops green food coloring
    2 tbsp lime juice
    1 tbsp all-purpose flour

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Line two muffin tins with 24 cupcake papers. In a medium bowl, stir together the crumbs and margarine. Spoon 1 Tbsp of the crumb mixture into each paper. Press down the mixture firmly with the bottom of a small juice glass.

In a medium bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together the egg whites and the salt until the mixture forms soft peaks. Set aside. In a large bowl, use the mixer to beat together the neufchatel cheese, sugar/splenda, food coloring, lime juice and flour, until fluffy. Add the yolks until well mixed, then use a spoon to fold in the whites.

Spoon a heaping tbsp of the lime mixture into each paper. Bake at 325 degrees for 25 minutes. Cool on the counter for 20 minutes, then keep refrigerated. Makes two dozen.

    Very Good
    i used regular sugar (splenda yuck), no food coloring, and shaved just a little white chocolate on the bites. Such a good treat for the holidays, and very portable - 7/7/09
