No-Bake Eclair Cake

February 2, 2011 by Brandie @ The Country Cook 86 Comments

Im pretty sure this cake goes down in history as, by far, one of the easiest desserts to make.
And you know what? People go nuts for it! It shows up at just about every potluck around and it
is one of the first things to go. It is delicious and it is so darn easy. No baking is required for this
dessert! The hardest part? Waiting to eat it! This is a great dessert for a crowd. Just double the
recipe, pop it all into a 913 pan and put it out on the table when everyone is ready for dessert.

Directions:
In a medium bowl, mix together the pudding mix, milk and Cool Whip. In a 9 x1 3 baking dish,
arrange a single layer of graham cracker squares on the bottom. You may have to break them up
a bit to get enough crackers to cover the bottom of your dish.
Spread half of the pudding mixture on top of the crackers. Layer another layer of graham
crackers over the pudding mixture. Then layer the other half of the pudding mixture on top of
crackers. Top with a final layer of graham crackers. Put plastic wrap over dish and put in fridge
for about 30 min to an hour to allow pudding to set.
When pudding has set up, put the tub of chocolate frosting in the microwave for about 15
seconds to soften (remove lid and aluminum foil top before microwaving). Take out and stir
frosting. It should be easily spreadable now.
Remove plastic wrap from dish and evenly spread chocolate frosting all over the top layer of
graham crackers. Place plastic wrap over top of dish and put back in fridge. Now, forget about
this dessert until tomorrow. This dessert gets better over time. The graham crackers need time
to soften up. When ready to serve, slice in squares and enjoy cold!

Cooks Note: This dessert does not take long to prepare but it definitely needs time to set up.
Make this the night before you actually need to serve it. For variation, try using chocolate
graham crackers with white chocolate pudding~yum!

Enjoy!
