amazon ec2 - Installing SSL Certificate

I am trying to install an SSL certificate on my Apache server that's hosted on an EC2 instance from AWS. I originally intended to go with AWS Certificate Manager and put the SSL on a Load Balancer but I have no need for more than one EC2 instance.

What I have found is that you can install the SSL directly to the server that's hosted at AWS. What I am confused about is how to do it. https://www.digicert.com/ssl-certificate-installation-apache.htm, among others, is a link that I have been trying to follow. I am stuck at #2 in the digicert link above becuase I can't find the SSL configuration file. Is it possible that I could not have that set up? If so, do I create the virtual host like specified in #4? Where would I place the virtual host block of code in my server?

Thank you for any and all help!
