Step-by-Step Instructions
First, I like to start with the crust because it’s the foundation of our delightful pie. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter, stirring until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Make sure to create an even layer so every slice is perfect! Next, pop it in the fridge while we whip up the filling, which is the fun part. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
