Ingredients

  •  2 cups graham cracker crumbs

  • 1/2 cup sugar

  • 1/3 cup butter plus 2 tablespoons butter, melted

Directions

  • Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar and melted butter in a bowl.
  • Pour into springform pan or large deep-dish pie pan. Press sides first and then bottom.
  • Bake the crust at 350 degrees for 12 minutes, until very lightly browned. Cool completely before adding filling.

Notes

  • I typically use a 9-inch or 10-inch springform pan, or a 10-inch deep dish pie pan. If you use a smaller springform pan, the crumbs will come up higher.
