If you live in Australia and you are looking for a substitute I suggest using a sweet cereal for another that requires cookie crumbs, such as Nutra grain or anything else sweet. For a biscuit substitute to graham crackers, I like to use Arnot’s nice biscuits but any plain dry style one will work.

Remove the dough from the fridge and roll it out until it is approximately 5mm thick on a lightly floured work surface.
Cut the dough into pieces with a sharp knife, or a pizza cutter, and transfer them to the prepared baking sheets with a spatula, leaving gap between the cookies.

Remove from the oven and cool for 5 minutes on the tray before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. As the crackers cool, they will crisp up.
