You’ll be blown away by how easy this Pumpkin Eclair Cake is to make. A 5 minute prep time, no bake, it tastes great, and everyone will love it! Thanksgiving treats have never been easier.
Easy Pumpkin Eclair Cake
Traditional eclairs would be made with a vanilla pudding, but making it with chocolate graham crackers is just awesome.
Some days are great for baking, while others just aren’t. This quick and easy pumpkin eclair cake comes together with some 5 minute pumpkin pudding, a pack of graham crackers, and some whipped cream.
If you aren’t ready to preheat that oven for a pumpkin pie, this will surely satisfy your craving. I love the light and fluffy whipped cream on top and the slightly frozen center.
How to serve it
You can serve this eclair cake frozen or let it thaw out a bit. It’s easier to handle and slice when it’s frozen, but it had better mouth-feel when it was softer and thawed out a bit.
I’d compromise and keep it cold until slicing it and waiting 10 minutes to serve after slicing it. Top it with whipped cream and some chocolate nibs.
I’ve also heard wild rumors that there is pumpkin whipped cream on the market somewhere. I haven’t seen it yet, but I think that using it as the topping would be great.
