In a medium bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs and sugar together.
Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press this mixture evenly into the bottom of a greased 9×13-inch baking pan.
Bake for 8–10 minutes, just until the edges start to turn golden. Remove from oven and let it cool slightly.
