(EASY) Boston Cream Pie Torte

I'm not quite sure where this recipe came from, but my mom has been making it for years, next to her always fantastic Dusty Dessert (which I'll have to post the recipe for sometime). This recipe is SO easy and so cheap to make. You can easily make it for under $8. It doesn't have to be baked, so you can whip this up in under 10 minutes for sure.

With the Red Sox win last night in the World Series, I made this dessert for Andy who eats, sleeps, and breathes Boston. My brother - who, again, doesn't like much - loves this dessert and gets it just about every year for his birthday from my mom.  So, that being said...everyone will be sure to love this dessert.


Ingredients:

  • Graham crackers (enough for two layers in a 9 x 13 pan)
  • (2) 3.25 oz. pkgs. instant vanilla pudding
  • 3-1/2 c. milk
  • 8 oz. container Cool Whip, thawed
  • 1 container chocolate frosting


Directions: 
  1. Line bottom of 9 x 13 pan with graham crackers.
  2. In bowl, mix together vanilla pudding mix and milk. (* Note: The recipe calls to mix only 3-1/2 cups milk...this is not the same as the directions on the pudding package...we want the batter to be thicker. Be sure to only add 3-1/2 cups.)
  3. Fold in Cool Whip and pour over graham crackers and smooth.
  4. Layer pudding layer with another layer of graham crackers.
  5. Carefully frost the top of the graham crackers.
  6. Chill in the refrigerator for a few hours before eating to allow the dessert to set a bit.
