No-Bake Chocolate Eclair Cake

Sometimes you want a decadent dessert coated in chocolate but don’t feel like going to the trouble of baking and waiting for it to bake. When that happens, this no-bake chocolate eclair cake really shines. It evokes the most delightful dessert memories of yesteryear and is the ideal summertime treat.

Layers of chocolate graham crackers, chewy on one side and creamy on the other, surround a vanilla custard filling in the center of this dessert. This icebox cake takes a whole new level with its glossy chocolate covering, which is evocative of the best eclairs or cream-filled doughnuts.

One of the dessert’s appealing aspects is how little cooking is required. A simple vanilla pudding base and some tasty whipped topping are all that’s needed to whisk up this light custard filling. In a deep dish, topped with chocolate graham crackers, it will be baked to perfection.
