Preparing the Crust
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Pour the melted butter over the mixture and stir until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9‑inch springform pan, creating an even layer. Bake for 8‑10 minutes, or until the crust turns a light golden brown, then let it cool while you work on the filling.
