Graham Cracker Cake


While I was down in FL visiting Nancy at the beginning of August, we decided to make the Graham Cracker Cake. The recipe intrigued us. We added our own touch to it by making it into a somore cake. We added chocolate fudge and marshmallow to the top. We did not know the size pan needed. We used a square pan.

Graham Cracker Cake
2/3 cup sifted all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 1/2 teas. baking powder
1/2 teas. salt
2 2/3 cup fine graham cracker crumbs

3/4 cup milk
1 teas. vanilla

mixer at low speed, beat until dry ingredients are barely dampened. Then at low speed to medium beat
2 mins. Add egg and beat one min. Turn into pan and bake 25 min at 375 or until done.
