• Ready In: 25mins

ingredients

• 20 pecan shortbread cookies, processed into crumbs (I'd say probably a good 2 cups of crumbs)
• 5 tablespoons melted butter

directions

1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Process cookies into crumbs in a food prcessor or crush in a heavy plastic bag with a rolling pin.
3. Add melted butter and mix until combined.
4. Press into bottom and sides of a nine-inch pie dish.
5. Bake for 10 minutes; it will feel soft, but will firm up as it cools.
6. Cool completely before filling with your favorite filling.
