Pie & Cheesecake Crust


Place approximately 12 home baked cookies or a complete box of Pamela's Traditional or Organic Cookies (9 cookies total) in a plastic bag. Use a rolling pin to make cookie crumbs. You will need 2 cups of crumbs. Melt 4 tablespoons butter.

OR

Crush 1 bag of Pamela's Simplebites Ginger Mini Snapz with a rolling pin in a plastic bag. Melt 3 tablespoons butter.

Using either method above: Coat the cookies crumbs with the butter. Pat into lightly greased pie pan. Bake as directed by your favorite pie recipe. When using with a non-bake filling, pre-bake pie crust in preheated 350º oven for 10 minutes, then add filling.

Wonderful for chocolate pudding pie or for an ice cream pie (soften ice cream, make pie, then refreeze).
