EASY CHOCOLATE ECLAIR CAKE



Easy Chocolate Eclair Cake image

This no-bake easy chocolate eclair cake is the recipe my mom used to make, and one of my family's favorites. Inspired by the chocolate eclair cake Portillo's serves, it comes together in about ten minutes-all you have to do is make it the day before you need it, put it down on the table with some forks, and get out of the way.
