Ingredients
  

  • 2 packages instant vanilla pudding mix 3.4 oz each
  • 3 cups cold milk
  • 1 container whipped topping 8 oz, thawed
  • 1 box graham crackers 14.4 oz
  • 1 can chocolate frosting 16 oz

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Pudding: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until smooth and thickened.
  • Fold in the whipped topping until well combined.
  • Layer the Cake: In a 9×13 inch baking dish, arrange a single layer of graham crackers to cover the bottom.
  • Spread half of the pudding mixture over the graham crackers.
  • Add another layer of graham crackers, then spread the remaining pudding mixture on top.
  • Finish with a final layer of graham crackers.
  • Make the Chocolate Glaze: In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave the chocolate frosting for 30 seconds or until it is soft enough to spread.
  • Stir well and pour over the top layer of graham crackers, spreading evenly.
  • Chill the Cake: Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the graham crackers to soften and the flavors to meld together.
  • Cut into squares and serve chilled.
