Chocolate Eclair Cake




Ingredients
  • Crust: 
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 large eggs
  • Filling: 
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 large box (5.1 ounces) vanilla instant pudding
  • 3 cups milk
  • Topping: 
  • 1 8 oz. container cool whip (just enough for a thin layer. I don't use the whole container) or one batch of homemade whipped cream
  • chocolate syrup or homemade chocolate sauce

Instructions
Preheat oven to 400. Lightly grease a 9"X13" glass baking pan.                           

For the Eclair Crust: In a medium saucepan, melt butter in water and bring to a boil. Remove from heat. Stir in flour. Mix in one egg at a time, mixing completely before adding another egg. Spread mixture into pan, covering the bottom and sides evenly. Mixture will be very wet. *If the sides of your pan are too greased you won't be able to get the mixture to stay up the sides so make sure to just lightly grease.  Bake for 25-40 minutes or until golden brown.  Everyone's oven is different, you may want to check it occasionally-you don't want to overcook the crust, it will ruin the cake! Remove from oven and let cool (don't touch or push bubbles down).

For the Filling: Whip cream cheese in a medium bowl. In separate bowl make vanilla pudding by beating the pudding mix and the milk for 3 minutes and put in the fridge until set. Make sure pudding is thick before mixing in with cream cheese. Slowly add pudding to cream cheese, mixing until there are no lumps. Let cool in fridge.When the crust is completely cooled, pour filling in. Top with layer of cool whip however thick you want it. Serve with a drizzle of chocolate syrup. *If you want to make this even better use homemade whipped cream.

YOUNG LIVING VITALITY LINE

Cooking and baking with essential oils is not only delicious it is ECONOMICAL. Because that 1 tiny drop provides a TON of flavor, but let’s talk about WHY we use essential oils for cooking or baking instead of the herbs from a garden or the grocery store. It all comes down to  FREQUENCY . Every cell in your body, every single living thing, has a vibrational frequency. When we consume things that have frequency, we can increase our body’s frequency, which increases our health. – Healthy human body frequency:      62+ MHz – Illness starts at 57-60 MHz – Our bodies are receptive to cancer at 42 MHz – Death begins at 25 MHz – Essential oils have frequencies, which can raise our bodies’ frequency. Dry herbs have a frequency   of 12-23 MHz. Fresh herbs go up to 20-27 MHz, which is awesome. Fresh is the way to go! Now – get this: Essential oils have a frequency between 52-320 MHz!  This means that even the lowest frequency oil is still ...
