Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. For a more uniform crust, use the bottom of a measuring cup to press the crumbs firmly. (10 minutes)

Chill the crust in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or until firm. This allows the butter to solidify and the crust to set properly. (30 minutes)
For a graham cracker crust variation, substitute graham cracker crumbs for the vanilla wafer crumbs.
If you don't have a food processor, you can crush the vanilla wafers in a resealable plastic bag using a rolling pin.
For a richer flavor, use browned butter.
To prevent the crust from sticking, you can lightly grease the pie plate before pressing in the crumb mixture.
Consider adding a pinch of salt to the crumb mixture to enhance the flavor.
