I went to use a packaged version of crust and it fell out of the pan onto the floor!(Don't ask) so I quick went to the cupboard and found grahm crackers. Your recipe gave a nice consistency to the crust. I used only 4 tbls. butter instead of 5. Thanks for posting!

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. It was so easy to make, I'm not going to buy prepared graham crusts anymore. The only thing that wasn't quite right about this recipe was the time - it only took me 5 minutes to make it! Thanks boogaloogie!

Did this in my food processor. Very quick and easy. I didn't measure the graham cracker crumbs, but just used one of the packages from the box.

This crust is delicious! A keeper for sure and never buying in store again!!!<br/>I added a few drops of Orange flavoring since the filling was going to be dark chocolate fudge, and now my boyfriend just won't share!!! Thank you for the recipe!!!!
