08 Step
Recipe View
Pour the melted chocolate frosting evenly over the top layer of graham crackers, ensuring it covers the entire surface.
09 Step
Recipe View
Refrigerate the cake for at least 12 hours to allow the graham crackers to soften and the flavors to meld together beautifully.
For an extra touch of elegance, garnish the cake with chocolate shavings or a dusting of cocoa powder before serving.
Feel free to experiment with different flavors of pudding mix, such as chocolate or cheesecake, to customize the cake to your liking.
To prevent the graham crackers from becoming too soggy, avoid over-saturating them with the pudding mixture.
Ensure the chocolate frosting is not too hot when pouring it over the graham crackers to prevent them from melting or becoming soggy.
If you want to avoid using the microwave, you can gently melt the frosting in a double boiler or a heatproof bowl set over a simmering pot of water, stirring occasionally until smooth.
