Add the melted butter, graham cracker crumbs, and sugar to the food processor. Pulse it together until it forms a texture like wet sand.
Transfer the mixture into the pie plate and press the graham cracker mixture into a pie plate or springform pan you've sprayed with nonstick spray. Use the bottom of a measuring cup to press the crust down into an even layer in the bottom of the dish and up the sides of the dish as well.
Once you've spread out the crust, either bake it for 6 to 8 minutes at 350 degrees OR let it chill in the fridge for an hour to set.
If you've baked the crust, remove it from the oven and let it cool to room temperature.
