"I use this crust for chilled layered desserts. pie crusts, or sprinkled on top for extra taste and crunch on ice cream desserts. A good substitute for graham cracker or cookie crusts."

directions

  • In medium bowl add crushed crackers, brown sugar. Mix with hands.
  • Add melted margarine and vanilla. Mix well.
  • Preheat oven 375*.
  • Spray pam in the cooking pan or pie pan.
  • Use non-stick pans if you have.
  • Press in the bottom of 9 X 9 pan or 9 inch pie pan.
  • Bake from 9 to 12 minutes. When the bottom of the crust starts to turn light brown, watch carefully, take out of oven when it is a medium brown. Cool.
  • Note: If you want to reserve 1/4 cup cooked or cooked crust, it is nice sprinkled on top of any filling.
  • I use my "I Can't Believe It is Butter" margarine spread.

  1. I found that it was enough for two pies with no crust on top. I made it with a Hershey's cocoa pie filling recipe. It was also enough for two pies and was good, and worked fine with this crust. The crust stayed more or less in one piece. I thought I would need a big spoon to serve it. I think this crust would be great with some kind of a butterscotch pudding filling. It doesn't taste anything like saltines when it's done. Very fast, easy and pleasurable to make.
     
  2. as i was looking through your recipes i decided to use this for my crust for a chocolate chess pie i was making instead of going out to the store just to buy a pie crust since i had all the ingredients anyway! i think ill stick to this recipe...no more store bought crusts for me. and its so simple i cant believe i never considered it!

<p>My husband & I built our dream home after our children were raised.We didn't hire a contractor, we pounded every nail and board and shingle on it.I have lots of stories to tell about that adventure. My passion is cooking, my grandchildren and living each day like it were my last. I love to drive the big rigs. I lived all over the world for a time and collected dolls and cookbooks. I write poetry. My other passions are the outdoors, country living, the sunrises and sunsets,to give to others more than I receive as it says in the Bible. As I get older I am less judgemental.I hope I have helped someone each and every day. Every day is an adventure! <br /><br />Event Participation! <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/RSC%20Banners/RSC11-SueL-FirstPlace.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/beartag_1_1.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting /> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/adopted_1_1.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/200_artistrichardneuman-art-prints_.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting /> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/untitled.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting /></p>
