🍰 What’s Inside This Cake?
Layers of soft graham crackers that soak up the pudding and cream
Silky, rich chocolate pudding made from scratch or instant
Light, fluffy whipped topping to balance the chocolate
A glossy chocolate ganache or drizzle on top for that eclair finish
đź›’ Ingredients
1 package graham crackers (about 9 oz)
2 packages instant chocolate pudding mix (3.9 oz each)
3 cups cold milk
1 tub (8 oz) whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed
Optional: chocolate chips or chocolate syrup for garnish
👩‍🍳 How to Make It
Step 1: Make the pudding
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pudding mix and cold milk for 2 minutes until thickened. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
Step 2: Layer the cake
In a 9×13-inch pan, spread a thin layer of pudding on the bottom. Arrange a layer of graham crackers over the pudding. Add another layer of pudding over the crackers, followed by a layer of whipped topping. Repeat layers, finishing with a thick layer of whipped topping.
Step 3: Chill
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours — or overnight. This gives the graham crackers time to soften into cake-like layers.
Step 4: Garnish and serve
Top with chocolate chips, syrup, or shaved chocolate before serving for an extra chocolate boost.
