GRAHAM CRACKER CHOCOLATE ECLAIRS
This is a super easy recipe and tastes fabulous! You need to let it sit in the refrigerator for the 24 hours in the instructions because that allows the crackers to soak up the pudding mixture and get soft. It's killer!

CHOCOLATE ECLAIR TORTE (NOT THE GRAHAM CRACKER VERSION)
Unlike the eclair desserts made with graham crackers, this one has a baked crust that has a texture and taste like the real thing. It puffs up and gets all bubbly! The filling is custard-y, and the chocolate icing is sweet. In short - it really is like an eclair, only much easier to make. Even though the recipe has three parts, it really doesn't take too terribly long to make. This recipe has circulated within my family for at least 20 years, and it's still a big favorite. Reduced fat and sugar-free products can be used and it will still turn out great. In place of the unsweetened chocolate squares, you can use 6 tablespoons of unsweetened baking cocoa + 2 tablespoons of butter. Cook time does not include refrigeration time, so please allow for that.

Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh graham crackers. Stale graham crackers will not hold together as well and will be more difficult to work with.
- If you don't have a pastry bag, you can use a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off.
- Be careful not to overfill the éclairs, or they will burst open when they bake.
- Bake the éclairs until they are golden brown and firm to the touch.
- Let the éclairs cool completely before filling them.
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate instead of semisweet chocolate.
- If you are using a different type of filling, be sure to adjust the amount of sugar and cornstarch accordingly.
- Garnish the éclairs with powdered sugar, chocolate shavings, or fresh berries before serving.
