Step 4: Chill & Set
Cover the dish with foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours — preferably overnight. The chilling time allows the graham crackers to soften into a cake-like texture and the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Step 5: Serve & Enjoy!
Slice, serve cold, and watch it disappear in minutes.

Homemade ganache topping: Heat 1/2 cup heavy cream and pour over 1 cup chocolate chips; let sit, then stir and spread.
