MAKE IT TOTALLY NO-BAKE–Reader Monica emailed me about making this with a crust made of pecan sandies. Just follow a recipe for a graham cracker crust (you can probably eliminate any added sugar in the crust recipe) and substitute the pecan sandies for the graham crackers. Totally AWESOME idea–thanks Monica!
