Step 3: Layer the Graham Crackers

  1. In a 9×13-inch baking dish, arrange a single layer of graham crackers on the bottom. Break pieces if necessary to fill gaps.
  2. Spread half of the pudding-cream mixture over the crackers, smoothing it evenly.

Step 4: Repeat the Layers

  1. Place another layer of graham crackers on top of the cream.
  2. Spread the remaining pudding-cream mixture evenly over the second layer of crackers.
  3. Optionally, finish with a final layer of graham crackers to make it extra structured.

Tip: Press gently on the layers to help the dessert set evenly.


Step 5: Make the Chocolate Topping

  1. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the chocolate chips with butter and milk. Stir constantly until smooth and glossy.
  2. Allow the chocolate to cool slightly, then pour it evenly over the top of the cake.
  3. Smooth it with a spatula or the back of a spoon.

Step 6: Chill and Serve

  1. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
  2. Slice into squares and serve chilled.

Tip: Refrigeration allows the graham crackers to soften, giving the cake a texture similar to a real eclair.
