- Cover the pot and boil for 2 minutes, remove the lid increase the heat to high and boil without stirring until the mixture reaches 240 degrees on a candy thermometer, about 10 minutes.
- Turn the mixer on low and pour the hot syrup into the gelatin and beat until the mixture has tripled in volume. Add vanilla extract and beat until incorporated, about 30 seconds.

- Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a sheet with parchment paper.
- On a floured surface, shape the dough into rectangles and roll out until 1/4 inch thick.
- Use a little water to pinch together any cracks in the dough.
- Precut graham crackers and place them on the parchment paper.
- Use a fork to gently poke holes into the crackers. Brush with almond milk or your milk of choice.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Let cool completely before serving. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months.
