Easy, No-Bake Chocolate Eclair Cake

Ingredients You Will Need:

  • 1 box (14.4 oz) graham crackers
  • 2 (3.4 oz) packages instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 4 cups milk
  • 1 container (8 oz) whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 cup milk (for chocolate glaze)

Instructions to Make Your Cake:

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and 4 cups of milk until smooth. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.
  2. Fold in the whipped topping until well combined. You should have a creamy filling.
  3. In a 9×13 inch baking dish, lay down a single layer of graham crackers to cover the bottom.
  4. Spread half of the pudding mixture over the graham crackers, smoothing it out evenly.
  5. Top the pudding layer with another layer of graham crackers. Repeat the process by adding the remaining pudding mixture and finishing with a final layer of graham crackers on top.
  6. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the chocolate chips, cocoa powder, butter, and 1/4 cup of milk. Stir until melted and smooth to create the chocolate glaze.
  7. Remove the saucepan from heat and let the glaze cool slightly before pouring it over the top layer of graham crackers.
  8. Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours, or overnight if possible, to allow the flavors to meld and the cake to set properly.
  9. Slice into squares and serve cold. Enjoy the creamy, chocolatey goodness!
