Ingredients
- 11½ sheets graham crackers
- 3 Tablespoons light brown sugar
- 7 Tablespoons salted butter

- Mix all ingredients together thoroughly so the butter coats all of the graham cracker crumbs.3 Tablespoons light brown sugar, 7 Tablespoons salted butter
- Smooth into a 9 inch pie pan with a flat bottomed cup or bowl. You can use it to press the edges into place with your finger laying on top of the edge to make a smoother edge. Make sure to press them down until pretty firm.
- You can either fill the pie shell now, or bake it at 350℉ for 10 minutes. Baking the graham cracker crust helps to firm it up. Just make sure you cool it completely before using it for a cold, no bake pie!
