Here’s a simple recipe for a no-bake chocolate eclair cake:
Ingredients:
- 1 box (14.4 oz) of graham crackers
- 1 package (3.4 oz) of instant vanilla pudding mix
- 2 cups milk
- 1 container (8 oz) of whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
- 1 can (16 oz) of chocolate frosting
Instructions:
- Prepare the Pudding: In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and 2 cups of milk. Continue whisking for about 2 minutes, or until the pudding mixture begins to thicken.
- Add Whipped Topping: Gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is well combined.
- Layer the Cake:
- In a 9×13 inch baking dish, place a layer of graham crackers on the bottom.
- Spread half of the pudding mixture over the graham crackers.
- Add another layer of graham crackers on top of the pudding.
- Spread the remaining pudding mixture over the second layer of graham crackers.
- Finish with a final layer of graham crackers.
- Add Chocolate Frosting: Open the can of chocolate frosting and gently warm it in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds to make it easier to spread. Spread the chocolate frosting over the top layer of graham crackers.
- Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight. This allows the graham crackers to soften and the flavors to meld.
- Serve: Cut into squares and serve chilled.
Enjoy your delicious, no-bake chocolate eclair cake!
