Notes
TIPS: To save money on this recipe, you can buy generic ingredients at Aldi's. I like to use the small milk or dark chocolate bars at Aldi's (the ones we used as table favors for Alex's wedding). They come in packs of 5 for about $2.00 and taste much better than the chocolate chips. Just break the bars into pieces so they melt faster. You need a minimum of 8 bars, but can use all 10 if you want an extra thick layer of chocolate. Also, when laying out the graham crackers, lay them in landscape position and you'll be able to get 3 columns of 6 graham crackers. Definitely use the parchment paper if you have it. MUCH easier than peeling off the foil, which tends to stick quite a bit.
