Graham Cracker Cake
this is an unbelieveably easy and delicious cake that has been made for years in my SO’s family. Definitely NOT for anyone wanting to watch their weight. This is his recipe.
Graham Cracker Cake
1 box of graham crackers
2 16oz containers of heavy cream
chocolate syrup to taste
Beat heavy cream until nearly stiff peaks form then add in chocolate syrup until desired chocolate-yness and sweetness, then beat until stiff peaks form. Spread thickly on graham crackers and stack or stick together side by side into a square shape. It’s important that they are generously slathered with the cream as it will be absorbed by the graham cracker. cover top and sides thickly, cover and refrigerate at least 24 hours.
Be sure to cover tightly as this will absorb any off or pungent odors in your refrigerator (learned that the hard way one year when I had a wrapped half an onion in the fridge…yuck.)
Ooh, Steph, this is what my grandfather made every Xmas eve, but he used some hard chocolate cookie from germany. We called it the Yule log. LOL Oh, I wonder if I can find those cookies here. I must make this for my kids.
Thanks for prompting that memory.
