Chocolate Eclair Cake Recipe
Ingredients:
For the Layers:
- 2 packages (3.4 ounces each) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 3 cups cold milk
- 1 container (8 ounces) whipped topping (such as Cool Whip), thawed
- 1 box graham crackers
For the Chocolate Topping:
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions:
- Prepare the Pudding Layer:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until the mixture begins to thicken. This should take about 2 minutes.
- Gently fold in the whipped topping until well combined. Set aside.
- Assemble the Layers:
- In a 9×13-inch baking dish, arrange a single layer of graham crackers to cover the bottom of the dish.
- Spread half of the pudding mixture evenly over the graham crackers.
- Add another layer of graham crackers on top of the pudding mixture.
- Spread the remaining pudding mixture over the second layer of graham crackers.
- Finish with a final layer of graham crackers.
- Prepare the Chocolate Topping:
- In a small saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, heavy cream, and butter over medium heat.
- Stir continuously until the chocolate chips and butter are melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Top the Dessert:
- Pour the chocolate topping over the top layer of graham crackers, spreading it evenly to cover the entire surface.
- Chill the Dessert:
- Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight if possible. This allows the graham crackers to soften and the flavors to meld together.
- Serve:
- Once chilled, slice the dessert into squares and serve.
Enjoy your delicious no-bake chocolate eclair cake! This dessert is perfect for any occasion and sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
