Combine the crushed graham crackers, sugar, and melted butter in a mixing bowl until it feels like damp sand. Press this mixture down firmly into mini pie tins, ramekins, or a muffin tin lined with cupcake liners. Pop it in the fridge for about 15–20 minutes to firm up.

In a big bowl, whip the cream cheese until it's smooth and creamy. Pour in the lime juice, sweetened condensed milk, and zest, then mix until evenly combined and nice and smooth.

Spread the lime mixture over the chilled crusts and use a spatula to smooth out the tops.

Place the assembled pies in the fridge for a minimum of 2–3 hours until the filling is nice and firm.
