Ingredients
- Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix
- Cold Milk
- Whipped Topping
- Graham Crackers
- Dark Chocolate Frosting
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk the instant pudding mix with the cold milk until smooth and thickened.
- Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Arrange a single layer of graham crackers in the bottom of a 9×13 inch pan.
- Spread half of the pudding mixture over the crackers.
- Add a second layer of crackers, the remaining pudding mixture, and a final layer of crackers.
- Microwave the chocolate frosting for 20 seconds until pourable, then spread it evenly over the top.
- Refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or up to 24 hours, before serving cold.
Notes
To ensure a perfectly smooth topping, always use a clean spatula when spreading the warmed frosting. For the best texture, resist the urge to slice the cake early; the long chilling period is essential for the graham crackers to absorb moisture and soften into a tender, cake-like consistency.
