  • For the Graham Crust. mix flour, brown sugar and salt. Cut in butter with a pastry cutter. When fine and crumbly press into a 9 x 12 glass pan. Cook approx 25-30 minutes until tan/brown at 350 degrees.
  • Let it cool, then crumble up and re-press into the pan. This is really fun to do with your hands, it's like playing in the sand!
