Éclair Cake
1 1lb. box
Graham Crackers (You will have
some left over) Honey Grahams are OK but use a major brand
like
Nabisco. I've used grocery store brands and they are not as good. . .
2 small pkgs. Inst. French or vanilla pudding (two 3 oz or one 6 oz)
3 ½ C milk
1 9oz.pkg. Cool whip
Butter the bottom of a 9x13 pan. Line with graham crackers.
Mix pudding with milk. Beat at med. speed for 2 minutes. Blend in the
Cool whip.
Pour half the pudding over the graham crackers. Then, place another
layer of crackers over the pudding. Pour remaining pudding over second
layer of crackers. Top the second layer of pudding with a third layer
of graham crackers.
Refrigerate for 2 hours and then frost.
