This morning I had a bit of time to think. I woke early for a Saturday, it was one of those mornings that staying in bed all day seemed possible.
And deciding 6am was too early to get out of bed, my mind wandered. As it did, I realised it is over 3-weeks since we got back from the trip to France, and my éclair cravings have not ceased – if anything, they have worsened. I thought that time away from your addiction was supposed to make it go away?
Apparently not.
This got me thinking about food addictions, cravings (and I am not talking about those feeder people!) and éclairs!

But today’s theme are not the long thin “traditional” hotdog shaped eclairs (although I like them), but rather, the icebox cake-like eclairs.
They’re easy to make using a graham crackers, or any other similar crackers or cookies, vanilla pudding and chocolate with only 15 minutes of hands-on time, too!
OK now for the BAD NEWS!!!!!
Sorry but you gotta do this “chill” part for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving. The longer the better this will insure that the crackers soften up and be just like a eclair. You can do it, I have faith in you.

Did you know that “éclair” is the French word for lightning? or flash of lightning ? Not sure really why, perhaps it’s because that’s how fast they disappear!
