1½ cups graham cracker crumbs
¼ cup packed light brown sugar

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350º. In medium bowl, whisk the graham cracker crumbs with the brown sugar & a pinch of salt. Add the melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly moistened. To form the crust, press the crumbs evenly over the bottom & up the side of a 10” metal pie plate. Bake 10 minutes until just set. Cool completely. In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the condensed milk, lime juice & a pinch of salt until smooth. Pour the filling into the cooled crust. Place in oven. Immediately lower the oven temperature to 325º. Bake for 20-25 minutes until set around the edges & slightly jiggly in the center. Let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until firm, at least 6 hours or overnight. Mound the whipped cream on the pie & garnish with key lime slices.

Personal Notes:
This is another great key lime pie. I like the two layer recipe better, but this is easier & quicker. I would use the Graeter's whipped cream on the top rather than the unsweetened whipped cream.
