• Make the crust: Heat oven to 350 degrees with a rack in the middle position. Place cookies, sugar and salt in a food processor and process until finely ground. (You should have about 1 1/2 cups). Add butter and pulse until the mixture looks like wet sand.

Whisk in gelatin mixture until completely dissolved, then whisk cream mixture into sour cream. Pour filling into cooled crust and refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours and up to 2 days.
