March is one of my favorite months of the year. It’s loaded with dinner and dessert ideas for St. Patrick’s Day and Pi Day too. On Pi Day, I like to indulge in some delicious pies, especially these mini pies. These mini tarts have a graham cracker crust with a creamy key lime filling topped whipped cream and lime slice. It’s the perfect dessert for any party or St. Patrick’s Day event. Easy and quick.
