Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s get started! The first step is to prepare the crust. In my kitchen, I combine the crushed graham crackers, cocoa powder, and melted butter in a mixing bowl. Using a fork, I mix it well until it resembles wet sand. Then I press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Once this is done, I pop it in the fridge to set while I work on the filling. This crust is a wonderful base, and it gives that satisfying crunch when you take a bite.
