I have a recipe that calls for crushing an entire box of graham crackers to make crumbs.  What is the measuring cup equivalent?

Ruby · Answer

I measured a box of graham cracker crumbs in a 2 cup glass measuring cup, I filled it to the very top rim of the cup.

Honey Maid says each sleeve = 1.25 cups crushed which is also what I have in my notes on my cheesecake recipe. Bars made with Graham crackers sounds yummy.

Yes, I am QUITE sure the recipe calls for a box.  The wording actually says "3 PACKAGES of graham crackers" which is 3 sleeves.   Thanks for the input.   I have never seen this either but there it is (it's a recipe for bar cookies).   And I appreciate the information that a sleeve is approx 1 cup of crushed grahams.

What are you making? A sleeve is about a cup but depends if you are fine grinding or coarse grinding.

Susan W. · Answer

I agree with chops. Are you sure it says the entire box?

Are you sure it's a box and not a sleeve of graham crackers?
