  • 1/4 cup (60 mL) Lantic or Rogers Granulated Sugar
  • 1/3 cup (75 mL) melted unsalted butter

Filling:

  • 2 pkg (8 oz/250 g each) brick-style plain cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) finely grated lime zest, divided
  • 1/3 cup (75 mL) lime juice
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla extract

  • 3/4 cup (175 mL) 35% whipping cream
