Description

Ingredients

• 14.4 ounce box graham crackers, divided
• 1 cup butter, melted
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 1 /2 cups sweetened coconut
• 1 cup chopped nuts, we used walnuts
• 1 cup graham cracker crumbs (from the box listed above)
• Frosting
• 1/2 cup butter, room temperature
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream or milk
• 1 3/4 cups powdered sugar, more or less if needed
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/8 teaspoon almond extract

Directions

• Line a 9 x 13 inch pan with whole graham crackers. Break some apart so that the whole bottom of the pan is covered. You can piece them in along the edges.(about 8 whole graham crackers)
• In a medium sized pan combine butter, sugar, milk, and beaten egg. Cook stirring constantly until it boils. Remove from heat and add coconut, chopped nuts and graham cracker crumbs.
• Spread over crackers in the pan and then immediately place more whole graham crackers on top covering the coconut mixture.
• Let cool slightly.
• Make the frosting by combining the butter, cream, powdered sugar, vanilla, and almond. Mix until well blended. If its too runny add a little more powdered sugar.
• Spread over the top graham cracker layer.
• Refrigerate for about 20 - 24 hours. This will soften up the graham crackers. Then cut into bars.
• The hard part is waiting the 24 hours. But you need that time so that the graham crackers will soften up. These are AMAZING!! Our mom actually likes them better after sitting out about 30 minutes! Mmmmm!
