Yield Makes one 5-by-10-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 7

15 ounces milk chocolate, chopped
5 large egg yolks
Salt
3 cups heavy cream
20 graham cracker sheets
4 or 5 ripe bananas, very thinly sliced lengthwise
Garnish: whipped cream

Steps:

  • Line a 5-by-10-inch loaf pan with plastic wrap. Place chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Place yolks and a pinch of salt in another heatproof bowl.
  • Bring cream to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Slowly pour cream into bowl with yolks, whisking constantly; return mixture to saucepan set over low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon, about 8 minutes (mixture should not come to a boil). Immediately strain through a fine sieve set over chocolate; stir until chocolate melts and is smooth. Refrigerate, stirring occasionally, until thick, about 4 hours.
  • Spread 1 cup chocolate mixture evenly into bottom of loaf pan. Top with a layer of 4 graham crackers, trimmed to fit. Spread 1/2 cup chocolate over tops, and cover with some bananas. Spread 1/2 cup chocolate over bananas, and top with a layer of 4 trimmed graham crackers. Repeat with remaining chocolate, bananas, and graham crackers until you reach the top of the pan; finish with graham crackers.
  • Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. Uncover, and turn out onto a serving platter. Remove plastic wrap. Garnish with whipped cream, and cut into slices.

Mom's Ice Box Cake With Graham Crackers image

Mom always made the icebox cake for us when we were kids.She made it with cooking pudding. You can add bananas or pineapple and you can top it off with whipped cream. I always like it this way the way mommy made it. Once the pudding melts into the graham crackers it just melts in your mouth.

Time 4h20m

Number Of Ingredients 4

16oz pkg graham crackers
1 pkg (3.5 oz.) instant vanilla pudding mix or cooking pudding
1 pkg (3.5 oz.) instant chocolate pudding mix or cooking pudding
5 c whole milk

Steps:

  • 1. The box says 2 cups of milk I added 1/2 extra which gave me a little bit more pudding. Blend the pudding mixes in different medium sized bowls. Stir until well blended. If using cooking pudding follow the instructions on the box.
  • 2. Place one single layer of graham crackers(save some) in the bottom of a 9x13" baking pan. Leave the crackers whole, do not crumble. You can fill in the gaps with broken graham crackers. Spread the chocolate or vanilla on top of crackers (save a little of each pudding for the last layers. Cover with another layer of crackers, Spread the remaining of the pudding on top follow by another layer of crackers. Now put the saved puddings of vanilla and chocolate making a swirl on top. Take the saved crackers and crumble them on top.
  • 3. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 4 hours. Once finished watch your fingers it doesn't last.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your icebox cake will be.
  • Use high-quality chocolate: The better the chocolate, the better your icebox cake will taste. Look for chocolate with a high cocoa content (70% or higher).
  • Make sure your graham crackers are fresh: Stale graham crackers will make your icebox cake soggy.
  • Don't overbeat the whipped cream: Overbeaten whipped cream will be too stiff and difficult to spread.
  • Chill the icebox cake for at least 4 hours before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the cake to set properly.
