Preheat oven to 325°F. In a food processor, pulse the gingersnaps until fine crumbs form. In a medium bowl, combine cookie crumbs, butter, and pinch of salt. Mix until well combined and press firmly into the bottom of a greased 9-inch springform pan. Bake 10–12 min., until crisp. Cool slightly.

Cool completely on a wire rack before removing rim of pan. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or up to 1 day before serving. Dust with the cinnamon before serving.
