"I do d'eclair!" (Which affirms the truth of a statement that was uttered by Gone With the Wind's Scarlett O'Hara a time or two, except we jacked it up our way with d'eclair instead of declare.) Guess what? We do give a damn! This Banana Split Eclair Cake tastes just like a divine, creamy eclair only it's in cake form. 😉
It's enough to make you swoon! You might need the vapors. 🙂
It's so rich and heavenly! It's also comforting, easy to make and no-bake!
Banana splits are definitely for summer-time fun, so I incorporated banana pudding, whipped cream and strawberries as the filling between the graham crackers and topped it off with a tub of chocolate frosting.
So, let's whip it up and put it in the fridge for 24 hours and then pig out.
