Ingredients
The Crust
- 18 whole graham crackers

The Filling
- 1 pound semisweet chocolate
- 3 cups heavy cream
- 1 tbsp espresso coffee
- ΒΌ tsp salt

Instructions
Make The Crust
- Place parchment paper in a 9 X 13 baking pan.
- In the Food Processor, process the graham crackers until you have crumbs. Then add the melted butter and pulse until evenly moistened.
- Add the crumbs into the prepared baking pan and press them down into an even layer on the bottom.

Make The Filling
- Set the Chocolate in a medium mixing bowl.
- In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of cream, espresso powder, and salt until hot but not boiling.
- Pour the hot cream mixture over the chocolate then add the vanilla and whisk until smooth.
- Set in the refrigerator to cool completely.
- In a large bowl whip the remaining 2 cups of heavy cream until you have stiff peaks. When the chocolate cooled down add it to the mixture and gently fold to combine.

- Cover with plastic wrap and chill until firm, at least 4 hours.
- Cut into squares, and if you desire top them with toppings. (I used almond slices.)
