Notes
*Note that for the graham crackers you may need more depending on the size of your container as you want the "crust" to cover the whole bottom. If you need more the general rule I go by is 1 graham cracker to ½ teaspoon milk.*I have included an estimation of the nutrition information for this recipe below.
