Who can deny themselves of these wonderful graham cracker , coconut, chocolate, and walnut treats!These were always made for us by my grandma, sometimes she would use regular crackers if she couldn't buy the grahams. They are so good either way.And with the homemade ice cream my dad made - oh my gosh- heavenly.I have made these using cinnamon grahams and chocolate grahams. they were so good that way too!
