Ingredients

  • Fruity Pebbles Crust:
  • 1-1/4 cups ground Fruity Pebbles cereal*
  • 3 Tablespoons sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted
  • Honey-Lime Filling:
  • 8 ounces block-style cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1 container (6-ounces) plain non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • Zest of 1 lime
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Garnish:
  • Whipped cream
  • Fruity Pebbles cereal
  • Lime twist

Instructions

  1. For crust: Combine ground cereal, sugar and salt in medium sized bowl. Stir in the melted butter until thoroughly blended. Pack mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie pan and press firmly to bottom and sides, bringing crumbs evenly up to the rim. Chill one hour before filling.
  2. For filling: With an electric mixer, beat together cream cheese, yogurt, honey, lime zest and vanilla for 5 minutes until well combined and fluffy. Spoon into prepared pie crust and smooth top. Cover and refrigerate until set, at least 4 hours or preferably overnight.
  3. When ready to serve, top each slice with a dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkling of Fruity Pebbles cereal, and a twist of lime.

Notes

*Note: 2-1/2 cups of Fruity Pebbles cereal yields about 1-1/4 cup of ground cereal when pulsed in a food processor.
