Ingredients

1 pound honey-cinnamon graham crackers
2 teaspoons baking powder
6 eggs, lightly beaten
2 cups sugar
2 cups milk
1/2 pound sweet butter, melted
1 1/2 cups walnuts, coarsely chopped
1 1/2 cups pecans, coarsely chopped
7 ounces grated coconut

Steps:

Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
Roll crackers to make fine crumbs, either with a rolling pin or in a food processor.
In a large bowl, blend crumbs with baking powder, eggs, sugar, milk, butter, walnuts, pecans and coconut until thoroughly incorporated.
Line a shoe box with waxed paper and fill with cake mixture. Place uncovered box on cookie sheet (save top) and bake for 3 hours. Let cool before slicing. If you put waxed paper on top of cake and cover with shoe box lid, the cake will keep for days. Box is reusable.
