This irresistible No-Bake Chocolate Eclair Cake is a crowd-pleasing dessert that requires zero oven time! Layers of graham crackers, creamy vanilla pudding, and rich chocolate frosting come together to create a dessert that tastes just like a classic eclair.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 (3.4-ounce) packages instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 3 1/2 cups milk
  • 1 (8-ounce) container whipped topping (thawed)
  • 1 box graham crackers
  • 1 can dark chocolate frosting

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together pudding mixes and milk until thickened (about 2 minutes).
  2. Gently fold in whipped topping until fully combined.
  3. In a 9×13 inch baking dish, arrange a single layer of graham crackers to cover the bottom.
  4. Spread half of the pudding mixture evenly over the graham crackers.
  5. Add another layer of graham crackers, then the remaining pudding mixture.
  6. Top with a final layer of graham crackers.
  7. Warm the chocolate frosting slightly (about 15 seconds in microwave) to make it spreadable.
  8. Spread frosting evenly over the top layer of graham crackers.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours (preferably overnight) before serving.

Notes

Tips: For best results, let the cake chill overnight to allow the graham crackers to soften. Substitutions: You can use chocolate pudding instead of vanilla for a more chocolatey flavor. Storage: Keep covered in refrigerator for up to 5 days.
