Step 1
Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are puffed and the surface is firm except for a small spot in the center that jiggled when the pan is gently shaken, 35 to 40 minutes.

Remove from the oven, set on a wire rack, and cool to room temperature, 1 to 2 hours.
Step 3
Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving, preferably overnight.

Spread 1 cup batter in the graham cracker crust.
