In a food processor, process the cookies until they are very fine crumbs. About 45 seconds.

In a bowl, add the melted butter to the crumbs and form a paste. Press into and 11 inch loose bottom tart pan making sure the crumbs are even all around the edges. You may also use the bottom of a glass to flatten it out.

Place the tart pan in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
