Steps:
- 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 it's 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.
