 Cooking Tips

*Some grocery stores sell graham cracker crumbs near the prepared pie crusts in the baking aisle. If you can' t find the, crush your own by placing graham crackers in a large ziploc and rolling them with a rolling pin until they dissolve into fine crumbs (or use a food processor).

*To lighten up this recipe, use chocolate nonfat or lowfat ice cream, and less chocolate syrup.
