ISO: old time graham cracker crust recipe?!
Baked on a cookie sheet then pressed while hot into pan of choice!. Tastes caramel-like but crunchy!. May have nuts in it!. Used as a base for cheesecake or for cooked banana-cream pie filling!. I am 60+ and it was a childhood treat from my grandmother in the 50's and 60's!. She lived just east of Decatur,
Illinois!. This was sticky when it was pressed
into pan, but once refrigerated, it was hard and crunchy then chewy!. Grandma is long gone and her daughters, too!. I have no other way to retrieve this recipe!. Can you help me, please!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

2 cups crushed graham crackers
1/2 stick unsalted butter (melted)
1/2 table spoon cinnimon
1/4 cup molassas or 1/2 brown sugar
Mix well then place into the baking pan!. Allow it 30 minutes to set in the fridge!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Toss the graham cracker crumbs with brown sugar and butter!.!.!.adding chopped nuts if desired!. Toast slightly in a pan on the stove, just until warmed and the sugar is slightly melted!. Turn into the baking pan of choice and press into place!. Bake the crust on 350 F for 5-7 minutes!. Remove from oven and let cool a few minutes!. Fill as desired and bake until the pie is done!. Probably not exactly like grandma's!.!.!.but I hope this helps!. Good luck!Www@FoodAQ@Com
