Chocolate Eclair Dessert

Warning: The recipe I am about to post is addictively delicious and simple to make. Sissy (if you still read my blog), I think you might even be able to master this one. Proceed with caution.

Last week, someone at school made this delicious dish for another teacher’s birthday and put it in the workroom fridge. Don’t know if anyone else munched on it throughout the week, but I sure did. I have been craving this dessert everyday since, so I whipped some up the other night as a treat. It was sooo easy and sooo tasty. Price even willingly ate it for breakfast yesterday. 24 hours later, and not a trace remains. Should I make another batch over the weekend?

Ingredients
- 2 sleeves graham crackers
- 2 (3 oz) packages of instant vanilla pudding mix
- 3 cups milk
- 1 (8 oz) container Cool Whip (thawed)
- 1 tub of chocolate frosting

Directions

Line the bottom of a 9x13-inch pan with one layer of graham crackers. In a large bowl, combine pudding mix and milk. Stir well. Stir in whipped topping to pudding mixture. Spread half of mixture over graham cracker layer. Top with another layer of graham crackers and the remaining pudding. Top all with a final layer of graham crackers. Place chocolate frosting in a bowl and microwave for 20 seconds to soften. Pour/spread over dessert. Refrigerate at least 2-3 hours.


PS. I have posted the original, more fattening, better-tasting recipe. However, I made it “low fat” by using half the icing, fat-free CoolWhip, sugar-free pudding, skim milk, and low fat graham crackers.
