TIPS:
1. If you're using whole graham crackers, finely crush them in a food processor.
2. You can also place them in a ziploc bag and roll with a rolling pin.
3. In place of graham crackers, you can use ginger snaps, nilla wafers, chocolate wafer cookies, chocolate graham crackers, cinnamon grahams, or any other cookie or cracker that is dry and crumbles easily.
