Notes

NOTE: This dessert is actually better frozen and thawed about 30 minutes before serving. It's easier to cut that way.
 
NOTE: The original recipe calls for this Homemade Chocolate Sauce. You can use this if you don’t have canned chocolate frosting.
 
HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE SAUCE:
2 squares bitter chocolate
2 tbsp. butter
2 tbsp. white corn syrup
3 tbsp. milk
1 tsp. vanilla
1 ½ cups powdered sugar
Melt chocolate with butter. Add remaining ingredients. Mix together and pour over top of graham cracker layer. Refrigerate 8 hours before serving.
