I strayed just slightly from the recipe. I used French Vanilla pudding and French Vanilla Cool Whip. This made it too sweet for my taste. Ergo, I'm going to have to just give this an average rating.

I'm giving this recipe a 5 star rating because it's quick and easy to prepare and everyone loved it. My personal preference is to NOT use artificial canned, boxed ingredients because it's not good for you. I almost cried when I saw that the frosting's first ingredient is high fructose corn syrup. eeek!! However, I needed to prepare something quick that would be sure to please and this did it. I think I will try the other recipe on this site because you make the frosting from scratch and that's much better. It's definitely a keeper for last minute dessert.

I have made this recipe several times. I just took it to the dessert bake-off at work--and I WON!!! I was actually somewhat embarrassed! There were so many complex desserts that were submitted that I am sure people spent HOURS making.....I spent 20 minutes! This is my husband's favorite dessert (he is the one who told me to make it for the bake-off). And he was disappointed when I came home with an empty pan.....in fact it went very quickly. My changes....I use 3 layers of graham crackers and make sure that the top layer is crackers, not cream. I also use only 8 oz of cool whip. I coat the entire top with melted canned chocolate frosting (after chilling the dessert in the fridge for an hour) --then I chill it for another hour and take it out and put a decorative swirl/design using vanilla frosting that has been melted in the micro and put into a baggie with the corner cut off. I wish I had taken a photo of the cake that won---it really was pretty with that white zig zag design I put on top!

I only used an 8oz tub of fat free cool whip and this was very good.

This was very good and I would of rated it 5 stars-but I think some of the ingredient amounts were off. I used two packages of instant vanilla pudding (they are 1.5 ounce boxes)each called for 2 cups of milk so I figured this was the correct amount, I also used an 8 ounce container of whipped topping. This was the perfect amount, using 16 ounces would of taken away from the vanilla flavor and been to whipped cream tasting for me. The end result was GREAT. Then my husband covered it with saran wrap and put it in the fridge. Well the next day, removing the saran wrap removed the majority of the frosting! The leftovers were sloppy and chocolate-less. I would suggest to put some toothpicks in it and "tent" a piece of foil over it for storage.

Nice and light dessert . Although I used the ingredients for this recipe I did make modifications for prep, serving size and refrigeration time. I halved recipe, used a standard sized loaf pan. Using kitchen shears, I did cut some of the graham crackers to fit the pan. I dipped the graham crackers into milk before placing in the pan to soften up slightly. I did not put the chocolate on the dessert until after it set up. Instead of refrigerating for 4-24 hours, I froze for 2 hours. Drizzled chocolate sauce upon serving. I used french vanilla pudding, next time I will use cheesecake flavor. I think I will also add a cooled layer of chocolate upon the second graham cracker layer, then refrigerate until firm, then add the next layer of pudding and top layer of graham cracker.

Love this recipe. Definitely need at least 12 hours in the refrigerator to get the best taste and texture!!!! I also used with low fat Cool Whip and skim milk and it still tasted delicious!!

I have this same exact recipe, and I always use pistachio pudding and vanilla icing. Pistachio is definitely the way to go! It is so... good this way. Made for St. Patrick's Day today (green pistachio pudding!) Here's my tip: make sure you start and end with a graham cracker layer and break the graham cracker into 4-5 mini-rectangles to make the layers, easier to serve/scoop out. Will be posting a photo...

I have made this several times and have taken it to parties and everyone loves it. Very easy and very tasty!!

i also use this exact same recipe. My husband is one of the pickiest eaters alive and this is his favorite dessert. My four year old also loves it. This is just an all around crowd pleaser. Can't go wrong with this one.It is also low budget. Which is always great if you have a family.

Oh my goodness, I was surprised about this one. I really didn't think it would come out tasting like a chocolate éclair. And boy was I wrong. It's divine. I made my own chocolate frosting for the top using the suggestion from one reviewer who used the recipe from mini chocolate éclairs. Perfection.

Loved this. BIG hit with the family for Christmas dessert. I like it better with the canned frosting (go figure). The homemade choc. sauce was too gritty and my 2nd try w/ the frosting was divine. I'm going to try to 1/2 the recipe tonight for just me and my husband. You must let this sit in the fridge overnight! Also, to get the pudding/whip mixture to spread out, I bang the pan on the counter a few times so that the graham crackers aren't moved too much (as opposed to spreading w/ a spatula). Works a lot better.

Solid 4 1/2! Yes, the hardest part is waiting 12 hours, but you really should. Try not to use cinnamon grahams. It throws off the taste. This recipe is going in my personal box. Everybody loved it at Christmas, and it's so simple!!

Okay, so I learned an important lesson making this. Apparently the weights of the sugar free puddings are drastically smaller than the weights of the regular puddings. I did not realize I was picking up the sugar free puddings and ended up having to put 5 or 6 boxes of it in to add up to the suggested ounce sizes in the recipe. Well, the recipe turned out fine, it was just extremely sweet and I think that is probably because of the mistake in buying the sugarfree pudding. I took it to my husband's work and everyone seemed to enjoy it. I am rating this recipe 4 stars, because if I had followed I can tell it would have been very good!

Delicious! Did not change a thing. This is now in my "favorites" recipe box.

This recipe was yummy and very easy to make. I recommend it to anyone who loves chocolate and graham crackers! Keep cooking! ;o)
