1-1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 cup sugar
If you are prebaking the shell, preheat oven to 350 F. Place the crumbs in a mixing bowl and add the butter and sugar. Blend well. Press the crumb mixture onto the bottom and partly up the sides of a greased 9 inch baking dish, pie pan, or springform mold. I highly recommend a springform for cheesecake. Smooth the crumb mixture along the bottom to an even thickness. Chill the crust for 5 to 10 min. in the freezer until it is set, or bake for 10 min. in a 350 F oven. Cool before filling.
Yields 1 9-inch crust
