Introduction
Strawberry Éclair Cake is a dreamy no-bake dessert that brings together creamy pudding, fresh strawberries, and soft graham cracker layers—all topped with a smooth frosting finish. Inspired by the classic éclair pastry, this cake transforms those beloved flavors into an easy, crowd-pleasing dessert that requires zero oven time and minimal effort.
Ingredients
1 box (3.4 oz) instant vanilla or cheesecake pudding mix
2 cups cold milk
8 oz whipped topping, thawed
1 box graham crackers
2–3 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
Frosting Layer
1 cup strawberry frosting or chocolate frosting
(or homemade glaze, optional)
Preparation
Step 1: Make the Pudding Filling
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant pudding mix and cold milk for about 2 minutes until thickened. Gently fold in the whipped topping until smooth and creamy.
Step 2: Prepare the Dish
Lightly grease or line a 9×13-inch baking dish. Arrange a single layer of graham crackers across the bottom, breaking them as needed to fit evenly.
Step 3: Layer the Cake
Spread half of the pudding mixture evenly over the graham crackers. Add a layer of sliced strawberries, distributing them evenly.
Step 4: Repeat the Layers
