If you like Chocolate Eclairs from the bakery but you find them a bit pricy
these days you can make this Cake which has about the same flavor.
Chocolate Eclair Cake
You need some Honey Graham Crackers, a couple of 4 serving French Vanilla
instant pudding mixes, a container of frozen whipped topping 12 oz size, and three cups of milk, and a 16 oz container of chocolate fudge icing or a box of icing mix that will yield about the same amount.
In a 8X13 glass or metal baking dish which is un-greased, line the bottom
with Graham crackers.
In a mixing bowl combine the two boxes of French Vanilla pudding mix with the three cups of milk and whip with a wire wisk or mixer until just beginning to thicken. Stop. Now fold in the thawed whipped topping until well mixed.
Now, use half of the pudding mix to cover the layer of Graham crackers.
Next, cover that with another layer of Graham Crackers.
Next, use the remaining pudding mix to cover the crackers again.
Next, cover that with another layer of Graham Crackers.
Finally, take the chocolate fudge icing and cover the Graham crackers sealing it to the edge of the dish.
This needs to sit in the Refrigerator overnight before serving.
You may as well make two of these cause when word gets around.....
Make a big pot of coffee too to go with it.

This recipe was given to me about 25 years ago and was called "Easy As Pie Eclair Cake". Being just my wife and I, we don't dare make this unless we have company to help eat it.
Thanks for the reminder. Maybe I'll get busy and make one this weekend for friends and family.
