Two ingredient icebox yogurt cake

Icebox cakes are as old-fashioned as iceboxes themselves. They are traditionally made with cookies like chocolate wafer cookies layered with whipped cream. After sitting in the fridge for a few hours, the wafers soften and become cake-like. Why not use thick, tangy, creamy Greek yogurt instead of whipped cream, and pair it with graham crackers? The tangy yogurt combined with the graham crackers creates a no-bake cheesecake! This is so simple I can't even call it a recipe.  Feel free to put own spin on it and try a bunch of different flavor combinations.

Here's what I do:
6-8 sheets of graham crackers (regular, cinnamon, or chocolate)
16 oz flavored Greek yogurt, any amount of fat (so many possibilities here! Vanilla, strawberry, honey, or lemon are all great!)

I place them in a Tupperware container that happens to fit two rows of graham crackers perfectly. Start with a base of graham crackers, then layer on some of the yogurt, repeating for 3-4 layers, ending with yogurt. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving. Makes 4 servings.
