GRAHAM CRACKER CAKE I
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and line with parchment two 9 inch round pans.
- Combine the crumbs, 1/2 cup pecans, flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large bowl, cream the butter and the light brown sugar until fluffy. Slowly beat in the egg yolks, one at a time. Stir in the vanilla. Alternately add the milk and the crumb mixture while beating on low.
- Beat the egg whites in a bowl until foamy. Add the sugar slowly, and beat to soft peaks. Fold into the crumb batter, and pour into the pans.
- Bake for 25 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Cool in the pans on a rack about 10 minutes, then invert and cool completely.
- To Make Frosting: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the 2 tablespoon sugar until it turns golden. Remove from heat, and add 4 tablespoons of the butter; swirl. Whisk in the dark brown sugar, and place back on the heat. Bring to a boil, stirring all the time. Add the cream, and bring back to a boil. Boil 1 minute, and remove caramel from heat.
- Place the confectioners' sugar in a large bowl, and mixing on medium speed, slowly drizzle in the caramel. Beat until the bottom of the bowl is just barely warm, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 1 1/4 cups butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Beat until smooth, and chill frosting until ready to ice the cake. Frost the cake, and press the pecans into the sides.

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.
