Step-by-Step Instructions
First, let’s start with the crust! In my kitchen, I always use a medium mixing bowl. I combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until they are evenly moistened. Then, I press this mixture firmly into the bottom of my 9×13 inch baking dish to create a sturdy crust. After that, I place the dish in the refrigerator to let it chill for about 10 minutes, which helps to set that crust nicely. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
