Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 °F and set an oven rack in the middle position.
- In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, and melted butter; stir with a fork first, and then your hands until the mixture is well combined. Using your fingers and the bottom of a glass or dry measuring cup, press the crumbs firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9 x 1.5-inch (deep-dish) pie pan. The crust should be about ¼-inch thick. (Tip: do the sides first.)
- Bake for 10 minutes, until just slightly browned. Let the crust cool on a wire rack.
- Lower the oven temperature to 350°F.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, yogurt, lime zest, and lime juice. Pour the thick mixture into the warm graham cracker crust. Bake for 15 minutes, until the filling is almost set; it should wobble a bit. Let cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then place in the refrigerator to chill thoroughly, about 3 hours.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add the confectioners' sugar and beat until medium peaks form. Top the pie with the whipped cream. Decorate with the lime zest and lime slices. Store the pie in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Slice the pie into wedges, wiping your knife clean between slices, and serve cold.
- Make-Ahead Instructions: You can make the crust a day ahead of time, but the filling should be added on the day of serving, otherwise the crust will get soggy.
- Note: The nutritional information was calculated using 2% Greek yogurt.

OH SO CREAMY AND FLUFFY KEY LIME PIE
We recently went to the Gaylord Texan Hotel over Christmas and had a slice of heaven in the form of a key lime pie delivered to our room. It wasn't to tart or to sweet and was oh so creamy. I was trying to recreate it for my DH birthday and hopefully got pretty close. He liked it - asked me to put some back so it wasn't totally eaten up by the family :). I also made some key lime sauce from debloves2cook recipe #166790 and put it on the plate as part of the presentation. Gave each plate a great look as well as a little lime kick. Cook time is refridgeration time. See the bottom of the instructions for a gluten free pie crust variation.

Tips:
- For a creamier pie, use full-fat cream cheese and sour cream.
- Make sure the cream cheese and sour cream are at room temperature before using them. This will help them blend smoothly.
- To prevent the pie crust from becoming soggy, pre-bake it before filling it.
- When making the lime curd, be sure to whisk constantly. This will prevent the eggs from curdling.
- If you don't have a lime zester, you can use a microplane grater to zest the limes.
- To make the pie ahead of time, bake it and let it cool completely. Then, wrap it in plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
This fluffy lime cream pie is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It's light and airy, with a creamy, tangy filling and a crisp, flaky crust. The pie is also relatively easy to make, and it can be made ahead of time, making it a great option for busy people. Whether you're serving it to guests or enjoying it yourself, this pie is sure to be a hit.
