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.

CREAMY LIME PIE (RICK BAYLESS)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Crack the eggs into a large bowl; measure in the lime zest, sugar, and masa harina or flour, and beat by hand until thoroughly combined.
• Stir in 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons of the creme fraiche, lime juice, orange juice, and orange liqueur.
• Pour this mixture into the prebaked pie shell, set in the lower third of the oven, and bake until nearly set in the center ( a knife inserted halfway between the edge and the center should come out clean), about 45 minutes. Note: mine took over 55 minutes before it was baked.
• I suggest putting an aluminum foil rim covering just the crust up so that crust does not get too dark. I make 4 skinny foil strips and then just lay them over the crust trying not to cover the filling any more than necessary. My crust in photos are too dark b/c I waited 15 minutes before putting them on, and with the filling being so wiggly why not just move it one less time?.
• Cool slightly; serve warm, dusted with powdered sugar and with fruit sauce dribbled around.

KEY LIME PIE

Steps:

• Make pastry shell
• Cut butter or lard into bits. In a bowl with a pastry blender or your fingertips blend all pastry shell ingredients except ice water until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in enough ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to form a dough. Form dough into a disk. Chill dough, wrapped in plastic wrap, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
• On a lightly floured surface roll out dough into a 15-inch round (about 1/8 inch thick) and fit into a 9-inch (1-quart) glass pie plate. Trim dough, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang, and crimp edge. Prick shell all over with a fork. Chill shell 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Line shell with foil and fill with pie weights or raw rice. Bake shell in lower third of oven 20 minutes. Carefully remove foil and weights or rice and bake shell until golden, about 10 to 15 minutes more. Cool shell completely on a rack.
• Make filling
• In a food processor blend cream cheese, lime juice, and condensed milk until smooth. Add zest and pulse just until combined. Pour filling into shell. In a bowl with an electric mixer beat crème fraîche with confectioners' sugar until it forms soft peaks and spread evenly over filling. Arrange lime slices on top of pie. Chill pie, loosely covered, at least 6 hours and up to 1 day.
