No-Bake Eclair à la Tave (Eclair Cake)

Ingredients

For the Pudding:

150 g pudding powder
200 g sugar
800 ml milk (divided into 2 portions)

For the Cream:

300 ml whipping cream (cold)

For the Cake Layers:

100 ml milk (optional, for soaking biscuits)
Biscuits with butter (thicker ones, enough to cover the cake layers)

For the Chocolate Icing:

200 g chocolate
3 tbsp milk (about 50 ml)

Instructions

1
Prepare the Pudding:
1. - In a bowl, mix 150 g pudding powder and 200 g sugar with half of the 800 ml milk. Stir well.
  - Place the mixture in a saucepan over low to medium heat, and add the remaining half of the milk.
  - Continuously mix until it thickens. Once thickened, remove it from the heat and transfer to another container.
  - Cover the pudding with plastic wrap (directly on the pudding to prevent a skin from forming) and let it cool.
2
Prepare the Whipped Cream:
1. - In a separate bowl, whip 300 ml cold whipping cream until it thickens.
  - Once the pudding has cooled, add the whipped cream to the pudding and mix everything well until fully combined. You can use a mixer for this.
3
Assemble the Cake:
1. - Optionally, soak the biscuits in 100 ml milk to soften them.
  - Arrange the soaked biscuits in a tray to form the first layer.
  - Spread half of the prepared cream over the biscuits and smooth it out.
  - Add the second layer of soaked biscuits and top with the remaining cream.
  - Finish by adding the last layer of biscuits.
  - Refrigerate the cake for 1-2 hours to set.
4
Prepare the Chocolate Icing:
1. - In a small pan, melt 200 g chocolate with 2-3 tablespoons of milk (about 50 ml). Mix well until smooth.
5
Finish the Cake:
1. - After refrigerating, remove the cake from the fridge and pour the melted chocolate icing over the top.
  - Allow the icing to set before serving.
6
Serve and Enjoy:
1. - Once the icing has set, cut and serve your delicious No-Bake Eclair à la Tave!
Tip: Feel free to substitute the biscuits with cocoa biscuits for added flavor, or experiment with different types of chocolate for the icing!
