No-Bake Cookie Crust
Ingredients
Directions
- Place cookie crumbs, sugar and nuts, if using, in a bowl and stir to mix.
- Add the melted butter and toss with a fork until evenly moistened.
- Pour into a 9-inch pie pan.
- Using your fingertips, pat the mixture evenly across the bottom and up the sides of the pan, pressing gently to pack.
Tip: Work quickly while the butter is still warm and liquid; the crumbs will be much easier to manipulate.Once the butter chills and sets, its almost impossible to shape a smooth even crust.
