How to Make Hershey's Chocolate Crumb Crust

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups of chocolate wafer crumbs, ½ cup of powdered sugar, and ½ cup (1 stick) of melted unsalted butter. Mix thoroughly until evenly moistened.
  3. Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch square baking pan. Use the bottom of a measuring cup or your fingers to ensure an even layer.
  4. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  5. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before adding your favorite filling. Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving for optimal crust texture.
