Then I posted a photo of these cookies on social media and found out that a whole bunch of you ate these as a kid too. Growing up, we didn’t really have a name for this graham cracker dessert. Now that I make them for my kids, we call them Icebox Cookies because they’re kept in the refrigerator. You might also like: The BEST No-Bake Cookies This is not a complicated cookie.
