Ingredients
- For the Crust:
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- For the Filling:
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt

Instructions
- Combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until evenly moistened.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish.
- Freeze the crust for 15-20 minutes until firm.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, sweetened condensed milk, key lime juice, key lime zest, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the yogurt mixture until light and fluffy.
- Pour the filling into the chilled crust and smooth the top.

Notes
- Fresh key lime juice provides the most authentic flavor, but bottled key lime juice can be used if necessary.
- Full-fat Greek yogurt creates the creamiest texture.
- Freeze overnight for the cleanest slices.
- Run a knife under hot water before slicing for smooth, neat cuts.
- Store covered in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
