Yes! 🙌 A No-Bake Chocolate Éclair Dessert is pure magic — layers of graham crackers, creamy vanilla pudding, and a rich chocolate topping. It tastes like a fancy éclair but comes together with zero oven time. Here’s the easiest and tastiest version:
🍫 No-Bake Chocolate Éclair Dessert
🛒 Ingredients:
For the filling:
-
2 (3.4 oz) boxes instant vanilla pudding mix
-
2 ½ cups cold milk
-
1 (8 oz) tub Cool Whip (or 1 cup whipped cream)
-
1 box graham crackers (you’ll need about 1 sleeve per layer)
For the chocolate topping:
-
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
-
1/4 cup milk
-
2 tbsp butter
-
2 tbsp corn syrup (for shine — optional but helps)
👩🍳 Instructions:
1. Make the pudding filling:
-
In a large bowl, whisk pudding mix with cold milk until thickened (2-3 minutes).
-
Fold in Cool Whip or whipped cream until smooth and fluffy.
2. Layer the dessert:
-
In a 9×13-inch dish, place a single layer of graham crackers on the bottom (break as needed to fit).
-
Spread half of the pudding mixture evenly over the crackers.
-
Add another layer of graham crackers.
-
Spread the remaining pudding mixture.
-
Top with a final layer of graham crackers.
3. Make the chocolate topping:
-
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips, milk, butter, and corn syrup together in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth and pourable.
-
Pour the chocolate glaze over the top graham cracker layer and spread evenly.
4. Chill:
-
Cover and refrigerate at least 6 hours (overnight is best!) to allow the graham crackers to soften into a cake-like texture.
5. Serve:
-
Slice into squares and enjoy the oohs and ahhs.
✅ Optional Twists:
-
Use chocolate graham crackers for a double chocolate version.
-
Add a layer of sliced bananas or strawberries between pudding layers.
-
Top with chopped nuts or drizzle with caramel for extra flair.
