No-Bake Eclair Cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that captures the flavors of traditional eclairs without the need for baking. Here’s a simple recipe for you to try:
Ingredients:
- 1 box (14.4 oz) graham crackers
- 2 boxes (3.4 oz each) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 3 cups cold milk
- 1 container (8 oz) frozen whipped topping (such as Cool Whip), thawed
- 1 can (16 oz) chocolate frosting
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until smooth and thickened, following the package instructions.
- Fold in the thawed whipped topping until well combined and creamy.
- In a 9×13 inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of the pudding mixture evenly on the bottom of the dish to prevent the graham crackers from sticking.
- Arrange a single layer of graham crackers on top of the pudding mixture, breaking them if necessary to fit the dish.
- Spread about one-third of the pudding mixture evenly over the layer of graham crackers.
- Repeat the layers: another layer of graham crackers, followed by pudding mixture, until you have used up all the pudding mixture. Finish with a final layer of graham crackers on top.
- Heat the chocolate frosting in the microwave for about 30-45 seconds, until it is pourable but not too runny.
- Pour the warm chocolate frosting evenly over the top layer of graham crackers, spreading it out with a spatula to cover the entire surface.
- Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate the eclair cake for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld and the cake to set.
- Before serving, slice the eclair cake into squares or rectangles, depending on your preference.
- Serve chilled and enjoy your delicious No-Bake Eclair Cake!
This dessert is perfect for potlucks, parties, or anytime you’re craving a sweet treat without the hassle of baking. It’s creamy, chocolaty, and sure to be a hit with friends and family!
