Fill to the top of the Graham Cracker Crust and bake for 10 Minutes then turn off oven at let it sit in warm oven for 20 Minutes.  Refrigerate overnight before serving.

For the Homemade Whipped Cream:  12-16 ounces Heavy Whipping Cream, pinch of Kosher Salt, 1/2 Cup of Powdered Sugar.  Start by whipping cream in large bowl with a pinch of salt.  When cream is starting to hold soft peaks sift in your powdered sugar and whip briefly to incorporate.  Do not over whip.  You can flavor the whipped cream if you like with a teaspoon of extract.  (Vanilla, Orange, or Almond would go nicely)
