Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, I gather all my ingredients and miss my pecans nicely in my food processor until they’re finely chopped. Not only does this save me time, but it helps create a lovely, smooth texture when mixed. Once the pecans are ready, I combine them in a mixing bowl with the graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, and shredded coconut if I’m feeling adventurous. The combination already smells heavenly!
