Description

Indulge in the delightful flavors of summer with this Strawberry Eclair Cake. Layers of graham crackers, luscious pudding, fresh strawberries, and a sweet strawberry glaze come together in this easy no-bake dessert that’s perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Cake:

  • 1 box (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 2 cups cold milk
  • 1 tub (8 oz) whipped topping (thawed)
  • 1 box graham crackers (about 18 sheets)
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries (sliced)
  • 1 cup strawberry glaze or topping
  • Optional: additional whipped topping and sliced strawberries for garnish


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pudding Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the pudding mix and cold milk until smooth and thickened, about 2 minutes.
  2. Combine with Whipped Topping: Gently fold in the whipped topping until fully combined.
  3. Layer the Cake: In a 9×13-inch baking dish, arrange a layer of graham crackers, half of the pudding mixture, half of the sliced strawberries, another layer of graham crackers, the remaining pudding mixture, and the rest of the strawberries.
  4. Finish and Chill: Top with a final layer of graham crackers. Pour the strawberry glaze evenly over the top, spread to cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Garnish with extra whipped topping and fresh strawberries before serving if desired.

Notes

  • This no-bake dessert is perfect for summer.
  • You can use strawberry jam thinned with a little water if glaze isn’t available.
  • For a lighter version, use sugar-free pudding and light whipped topping.
