  • Prepare Graham Cracker Crust with the following change: Use 1 1/2 cups chocolate wafer crumbs in place of graham cracker crumbs. Bake if desired.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate wafers for a richer and more flavorful crust.
  • Make sure the butter is cold before adding it to the chocolate wafers. This will help to keep the crust from becoming greasy.
  • Press the chocolate wafer mixture firmly into the bottom of the pan. This will help to prevent the crust from crumbling.
  • Chill the crust for at least 30 minutes before filling it. This will help to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
  • If you are using a no-bake filling, make sure the crust is completely chilled before adding the filling. Otherwise, the filling may melt and make the crust soggy.
  • If you are baking the crust, preheat the oven to the temperature specified in the recipe before baking the crust. This will help to ensure that the crust bakes evenly.
  • Let the crust cool completely before serving. This will help to prevent the crust from crumbling.
