Ingredients

12 Chocolate graham crackers, full size, not broken
2 3-ounce boxes white chocolate pudding mix, plus 4 cups milk
1 can LUCKY LEAF® Regular, Premium, or Organic Cherry Fruit Filling or Topping
1 cup whipping cream*
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin, plus 3 tsp water
1 chocolate bar for shavings and curls

*Tip: You can substitute ready-to-use Cool Whip for stabilized whipped cream.

Directions

Step 1
Line a 12 X 4 bread loaf pan with plastic wrap.
Step 2
Prepare the white chocolate pudding packs according to the instructions and let sit for 5 minutes.
Step 3
Layer 2 full sheets of chocolate graham crackers, followed by white chocolate pudding and then topped with the cherry fruit filling (reserve 12 cherries for the top). Repeat six times ending with a layer of graham crackers.
Step 4
Close the excess plastic wrap over the top and compress the sides to ensure that the filling doesn't end up squished out.
Step 5
Freeze at least 6 hours or until ready to serve.
Step 6
Make the stabilized whipped cream: Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of unflavored gelatin over 3 teaspoons of water. Let rest for a minute then microwave for 20 seconds. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
Step 7
Whip the heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form, then drizzle the cooled gelatin in and whip again until stiff peaks form.
Step 8
Decorate the cake: Remove the eclair cake from the freezer and transfer to a plate. Remove the plastic wrap and frost with the stabilized whipped cream.
Step 9
Use a vegetable peeler to make chocolate curls from candy bar and then top with the reserved cherries.
Step 10
Cut and serve.

Tip

If you do not have a skinny bread loaf pan, you can prepare in an 8 X 8 baking dish. Do NOT use plastic wrap, simply layer the graham crackers, pudding and cherries in three layers and top with the whipped cream.
