Prepare the graham cracker crust

Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Melt 6 tablespoons of the butter. Mix the graham cracker crumbs with 2 tablespoons of the granulated sugar and the melted butter until evenly moistened. Press firmly over the bottom and up the sides of a standard 9-inch pie plate, using a flat-bottomed measuring cup to compact the crumbs.
