Ingredients:

• 20 whole sheets graham crackers
• ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 can sweetened condensed milk, 14 oz

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven: Heat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9 × 13-inch glass baking dish, or line it with parchment paper.
2. Create the first layer: Arrange six whole graham cracker sheets in a single layer across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
3. Make the graham cracker mixture: Crush the remaining graham crackers into fine crumbs. Combine the crumbs with the melted butter, mixing until evenly coated.
4. Add chocolate: Sprinkle half of the chocolate chips evenly over the graham cracker layer.
5. Add another layer: Spread half of the buttered graham cracker crumbs over the chocolate chips.
6. Repeat: Add another layer of graham crackers, followed by the remaining chocolate chips and graham cracker crumbs.
7. Add condensed milk: Slowly drizzle the sweetened condensed milk over the entire surface, making sure it reaches as much of the dessert as possible.
8. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden and the edges are bubbling.
9. Cool: Remove from the oven and allow the dessert to cool completely before slicing into squares or bars.
