This was really simple and easy to put together when you do not have a premade one to use. I used it with Pistachio Cream Dessert and it turned out great. Thanks for posting.

    My DH really enjoyed this made as a lemon pie.He doesn't like hard graham cracker crusts. I made it with soft margarine and didn't melt it, just used a fork and mixed it in. It came out very crumbly. I had to scrape it off the pie pan for each slice as it was still just crumbs, it didn't hold together. I liked being able to make in the micro. I will made it again and use butter next time.I baked for 3 min. and 30 sec. in my 800W micro. --UPDATE. We ate 3/4 of the pie while it was still warm. The crust firmed up nicely when it got cold and held together fine.

    Easy, fast, and so delicious, despite having only 2 ingredients. We were picking up every last crumb of this crust to eat. I doubt I will ever buy a premade graham shell again, this was much better.
