Lime Mousse Cheescake

this is a wonderful, light cheesecake/mousse hybrid.  Wonderful as an accompaniment to a summer meal or dinner party.

¼ cup

Lime juice

1 packet

Unflavored gelatin

1 2/3 cup

Whipping cream, not whipped

7 squares

White bakers chocolate

1 pound

Neufchatel cheese

½ cup

Sugar

1 each

Graham cracker pie shell

½ cup

1 % milk

1 each

Lime

Place lime juice in bowl and sprinkle gelatin over the top to soften. Bring milk to a simmer in a heavy saucepan and remove from heat. Add white chocolate to milk and stir until smooth. Add gelatin mixture to milk and chocolate and stir well. In small bowl, combine sugar, Neufchatel cheese and the zest from the lime. Mix until creamy. Slowly beat the white chocolate mixture into the Neufchatel mixture. In a separate bowl, beat the whipped topping until firm; then fold into white chocolate/Neufchatel mixture. Pour filling into pre-made graham cracker crust. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Serve cold.
