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.

THE BEST KEY LIME PIE
A Floridian classic, this bright, creamy and tart dessert is so simple to make it will become a regular at your summer get togethers. Key lime juice is the star of this pie, adding a slightly more floral note than regular limes. But not to worry if you can't find fresh Key limes or the bottled juice - you can use standard limes with equally delicious results.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- For the crust: Stir together the graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar and salt with a fork in a medium bowl. Pour in the butter and continue to stir until the mixture resembles wet sand. Transfer the crumb mixture to a 9-inch glass or metal pie dish and spread into an even layer. Use a 1/4 measuring cup or small glass to firmly press the crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Bake until it is dry-looking and lightly browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack while you make the filling.
- For the filling: Combine the sweetened condensed milk and sour cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until combined, about 1 minute. Add the lime juice, egg yolks, salt and lime zest and continue to beat until the batter is smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour into the graham cracker crust. Bake until the pie is mostly set but jiggles slightly in the center, 15 to 20 minutes. Let the pie cool to room temperature on a wire rack, then refrigerate to set and chill completely, at least 2 hours, but preferably overnight.
- For the whipped cream topping: Combine the heavy cream, confectioners' sugar and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until stiff peaks form. Transfer the whipped cream to a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe the topping decoratively on top of the pie. Alternatively, dolloped the whipped cream on slices of pie. Sprinkle with lime zest.

Steps:
- Make the crust:
- Place rack in the center of oven and preheat to 350°F.

- Make the filling and bake pie:
- Whisk condensed milk and yolks together in a large bowl. Add key lime and lemon juice and whisk until well-combined (mixture will thicken slightly).

- Make the topping:
- When ready to serve, whip cream with a whisk or electric mixer to very soft peaks. Sprinkle sugar over cream and continue whipping until it holds stiff peaks. Dollop cream in center of pie (leaving at least a 1" border of visible pie filling) and serve.
- Do Ahead

Steps:
- For the crust: Lightly spray a 9-inch deep dish pie pan with nonstick spray.
- In a food processor or doubled gallon-sized resealable plastic bags, crush the graham crackers into crumbs. Add the sugar, lime zest and salt and mix to combine. Add the butter and process or toss to evenly coat the crumbs. Transfer to the prepared pan and press into an even layer on the bottom and up to the top edge of the pie pan. Freeze while making the filling.
- For the filling: Add the water to a microwaveable cereal-size bowl. Sprinkle with the gelatin in an even layer and set aside to let it absorb the water.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the cream cheese and lime zest on medium speed until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Stop the mixer and scrape the bowl and paddle and mix on high until completely smooth and free of lumps, about 30 seconds. Add the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla and salt and mix on low speed until combined. Scrape the bowl and paddle and mix on medium speed until completely smooth, at least 1 minute. With the mixer running on low speed, gradually add the lime juice and mix until smooth. Scrape the bowl and mix for another 30 seconds.
- Microwave the gelatin in 6-second increments, stirring after each, until clear and fully melted, 18 to 20 seconds. The gelatin will feel warm. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture and stir into the warm gelatin until smooth.
- With the mixer running on medium speed, immediately pour the gelatin into the remaining cream cheese mixture and mix until incorporated, 10 to 20 seconds, stopping to scrape the bowl as needed.
- Pour the filling into the chilled crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate uncovered to chill overnight.
- For the whipped cream: Combine the honey, salt and a splash of the cream in your stand mixer bowl. Use the whisk attachment to combine the honey and cream by hand, mixing until mostly smooth. Add the remaining cream, attach the whisk attachment to the stand mixer and whip on medium-high speed until medium soft peaks form.
- Dollop the whipped cream around the surface of the pie filling.
- For finishing: Zest the lime evenly over the whipped cream. Serve immediately or refrigerate any leftovers for up to 2 days.
