A no bake eclair cake<\/strong> recipe that tastes like a creamy and decadent cross between Boston cream pie and a chocolate eclair.<\/p>\n

\"Easy<\/p>\n

Easy Eclair Cake<\/h2>\n

If you love eclairs you are going to go crazy for this no bake chocolate eclair cake. It tastes like an eclair but is much easier to make with just 5 ingredients, a bowl, and a spoon. No need to even turn on the oven or break out the electric mixer!<\/p>\n

I love how easy no-bake cakes<\/a> are to make. For more no-bake desserts try my strawberry jello pie<\/a>, blueberry delight<\/a>, and lemon icebox cake<\/a> recipes.<\/p>\n

\"No<\/p>\n

Also referred to as Boston cream icebox cake, this decadent dessert is made by alternating layers of graham crackers and vanilla pudding. It is then topped with a rich chocolate frosting before being place in the refrigerator to chill. As it refrigerates the graham crackers absorb some of the pudding, making them soft and cake-like.<\/p>\n

\"Easy<\/p>\n

The toughest part is waiting for the dessert to chill, which is why I recommend making the no-bake cake<\/a> the day before you plan on serving it. The cake needs at least<\/strong> 6 hours in the fridge. But for the best results, I would recommend letting it chill for 12-24 hours.<\/p>\n

This eclair icebox cake is perfect for potlucks, barbecues, and holiday parties. It is easy to transport, serves a crowd, and is always<\/strong> the first dessert to go!<\/p>\n
