This mixture can be cooked in the microwave on medium for 4 minutes until thickened,stirring every minute, or cook in a saucepan on top of the stove on medium heat,but stir continually to prevent lumps or sticking to the bottom of the pan until thickened.

• Top this layer of Graham wafers with Cream cheese icing .using your favorite recipe but I recommend halving a recipe which would use only 4 ounces of cream cheese rather than 8 ounces so the icing is not to thick on top of the square. Store in fridge.
• Best when prepared a day ahead of serving,allowing the Graham wafers to soften.
• Note: servings depends on Square size.
• .Hot mixture can be cooled by placing in freezer stirring every few minutes. Cooking time is cooling time.
• Note: these squares can be frozen BUT the Graham crackers will be really quite soft. They can still be sliced without a problem.
