Step 4: Make the Chocolate Topping

  1. In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat.
  2. Add milk and chocolate chips, stirring until fully melted and smooth.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in powdered sugar until the chocolate glaze is shiny and thick but pourable.

Step 5: Finish the Cake

  1. Pour the chocolate glaze over the pudding layer, spreading evenly with a spatula.
  2. Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results. This allows the graham crackers to soften and the flavors to meld together.

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy

  1. Slice the cake into squares or rectangles.
  2. Serve chilled and enjoy the creamy, chocolatey layers that taste just like an eclair without any baking!

Tips for Success

  • Softening graham crackers: To make slicing easier, lightly spray or brush the top of the graham crackers with milk before layering.
  • Pudding mix: For an extra creamy texture, use full-fat milk instead of low-fat.
  • Make ahead: This dessert actually tastes better the next day as the flavors have more time to meld.

No-Bake Éclair Cake is perfect for anyone craving a rich dessert without the stress of baking. With its creamy vanilla layers, chocolate topping, and soft, graham-cracker base, it’s like enjoying a tray of eclairs in every forkful. Quick to assemble, easy to customize, and guaranteed to impress — this dessert is a must-try!
