I’ll use more butter next time, it came out a bit loose. But very easy and quick to put together!
Jackson Villa
I couldn’t tell how many gram crackers were needed, because each sleeve contains 9 full sheets. If I followed the recipe as is, I would have had too much butter.
Brian Hughes
It ultimately worked out okay, but the crust turned out loose for me. Possibly more butter needed?
Valerie Ross
Tasty and great texture, but you will definitely need a few more grahams. My key lime pie was wonderful with this crust!
Bonnie Silva
Great recipe! in contrary to other opinion yes you need a few more graham crackers however if you’re using two sleeves you are getting actually 18 sheets!… Now I made those 18 sheets work for a 9×13 glass dish and it worked fine! Though I would recommend two sheets more for the 9×13; 14 sheets for an 8 or 9 inch round is plenty good. I found Irish butter to be better and I used seven tablespoons and a quarter cup of heavy cream worked like a charm!
350° was perfect watch your times as all ovens cook differently.

Total fail. Too many graham crackers, not enough butter. Do not recommend.
Vincent Patton
This did not work at all. Way too many crumbs relative to butter and way too much crust, even for a 10” pan. Very disappointed.
Mr. Matthew Carroll
6tbl melted butter is not enough for 14 sheets. Was too dry and wouldn’t keep shape in pan. Added another 2 tbl to be moist enough to take shape in pie pan. 6 might be enough if using 12 sheets.
