Buttercream Frosting:
1 cup of softened butter
2 cups of powdered sugar
1 tsp of vanilla extract
1-2 tbsp of milk (if needed for desired consistency)
Green food coloring (optional)
Directions
Step 1: Making the Graham Cracker Cake
In a bowl, mix together the crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and sugar until well combined.

Cut the graham cracker cake into 3 equal rectangular pieces.
Place one piece of the cake on a flat surface and spread a layer of buttercream frosting on top.
Place the second piece of cake on top of the frosting and spread another layer of frosting on top.
Finally, place the third piece of cake on top of the second layer of frosting to create a log shape.
Use the remaining frosting to cover the entire cake, creating a smooth surface.
If desired, add a few drops of green food coloring to the remaining frosting to create a festive color for the Ulog.
Use a fork or toothpick to create a bark-like texture on the frosting.
Finally, decorate the Ulog with candy canes, cranberries, and rosemary sprigs to give it a festive touch.
