Cheesecake Recipe and Chocolate Eclair Cake
Cheesecake Recipe
From Jane: After seeing today's recipe for strawberries and
cream, I wondered if you had ever heard of No
Bake Cheesecake. It is very simple. You mix one 8
ounce package of cream cheese with 1/3 cup sugar,
2 TBSP of lemon juice and one 8 oz. Cool Whip or
store brand whipped topping. Spoon into a graham
crust and chill. It is delicious and easy. I also
have one for Chocolate Eclair cake also if you
are interested that is also a refrigerator cake.
Let me know if you'd like the recipe. Thanks for
all your kindness. We love you!

I am so honored you want this recipe. It is very rich,
but really yummy. Good for a hot day. Also Easter. I
got it when I lived on the Eastern Shore of Maryland
which is a steamy, humid, southern place.
Chocolate Eclair Cake
1 box graham crackers (you may not use them all)
1 8 ounce Cool Whip, thawed
2 small instant french vanilla pudding
1 can dark chocolate icing
3 cups cold milk
Break enough grahams into squares to cover the bottom
of a 9 x 13 pan. Mix milk and pudding with mixer, then
fold in Cool Whip by hand and blend well. Spoon 1/2 of
mixture on top of crackers. Lay another layer of
crackers on top. Spoon rest of pudding mixture on top,
spreading out to cover crackers. Then one more layer
of crackers. Take off foil seal from icing, replace
lid and heat one minute on high in microwave. Pour
over last cracker layer and spread to cover with
spatula if needed. Cover with plastic wrap and chill
several hours or over night. Oh man! You will think
you died and went to heaven.
Of course, I guess this of no use to someone on a
strict diet. Oh well.
Love, Jane

Oh, yum! I have read so many cookbooks and magazines that I thought I had seen every way to use Cool Whip and pudding in a dessert but this is a new one on me. I can't wait to try it. It sounds easy, good, different and perfect for summer! Great recipe. Thanks, Jill
I have done the Eclair recipe for years, but I do a different icing that I like even better.
If you make this chocolate sauce first, and then let it sit aside while you make the other stuff, it's just the right consistency to pour over the top.
Chocolate sauce topping:
Mix 1/3 cup cocoa, 1 cup sugar in sauce pan. Add 1 teasp vanilla, 1 stick butter, 1/4 cup milk. Boil for 1 minute, then set aside to cool.
I really like your blog!!

I make the eclair with sugarfree pudding and low fat cool whip and we all love it! I actually got the recipe at a weight watcher meeting.
i thought of another good idea for this cake... instead of putting the last layer of crushed graham crackers and then the syrup, cover with crushed oreo cookies...
either way, the cake sounds yummo! :D
thanks for sharing this recipe...
:D
