Mock Graham Cracker Crust

Submitted by: Phyllis Wilson
I used to wonder why I disliked cheesecake and key lime pie, since I like cream cheese pastry and lemon pie. Then I tried a key lime pie in a shortbread crust and realized it was the graham cracker crust I disliked. Both these desserts need a darker than usual crust, however.

Fried Pie Crust

This is the perfect crust for a no-bake custard or cream pie, and it 's so easy to whip up. Flour, brown sugar, coconut and butter are cooked until the butter and sugar melt and everything turns a beautiful golden brown. The crust is then pressed into a pie plate and cooled.

Favorite Pie Crust

Submitted by: Patti
This recipe will show you why old-fashioned cooks choose lard for their pastry. The pastry turns out super flaky and manageable to roll out. Along with the lard, there 's brown sugar, egg yolk, vinegar and baking powder. The resulting dough bakes up into a rich crust that will handle any filling beautifully.
