Step-by-Step Instructions
To make this delicious Root Beer Float Pie, start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press this sticky goodness into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Pop it in the oven for about 10 minutes until it’s crisp and slightly golden. Your kitchen will begin to smell heavenly! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
