Lisa's Wedding Cookie Cake
- 8 (3 1/2 ounce) packages chocolate pudding mix (can use sugar free, regular instant, or the kind you have to cook, all will work, need to have a 2 c)
- 10 cups whole milk (or half 'n half if you want to splurge)
- 2 (1 lb) packages graham crackers
- Use a 4 qt bowl.
- Line the inside of your bowl with long strips of plastic wrap, leaving enough wrap to fold back over the top when your cake is finished.
- Cover the bottom of the bowl with graham crackers, all the way out to the sides.
- You can break them in half or quarters if you want, but it's also okay just to overlap them.
- Make the first two packages of pudding using 2 1/2 cups of milk, not the 4 cups called for in the directions on the box.
- Pour approximately a third of the pudding over the layer of graham crackers in your bowl.
- Gently spread it out with a rubber spatula- doesn't have to be perfectly smooth.
- Put another layer of graham crackers on top of the pudding in the bowl.
- Put half of the remaining pudding on top of the second layer of grahams.
- Spread it out so it covers them.
- Lay down another layer of grahams and top it with the remaining pudding.
- Spread out the pudding and lay down another layer of graham crackers.
- (Don't bother to wash out the bowl, you're just going to make another batch.
- ).
- Using another 2 pkgs of pudding and another 2 1/2 cups of milk, make your second batch of pudding.
- Use half of the pudding to cover graham crackers.
- Smooth the pudding with spatula and lay down another layer of grahams, cover with remaining pudding.
- Top with another layer of grahams.
- Make the third batch of pudding using 2 pkgs of pudding and 2 1/2 cups of milk.
- Put half the pudding on top of your grahams, smooth it out, then put the rest of the pudding on, smooth, and cover with grahams.
- Make the final pudding batch using 2 pkgs of pudding and 2 1/2 cups of milk.
- Put half on the layer of grahams, cover with more crackers, then put the rest of the pudding on, then cover with a double layer of graham crackers.
- Fold in the edges of the plastic wrap to cover the contents of your bowl.
- Find a plate that will fit inside the bowl on top of the cake.
- Put it in right side up so that it'll push the cake down when it settles.
- Set a weight on top of the plate.
- I use a can of fruit.
- Refrigerate the cake until time to serve.
- When you're ready to serve, remove the weight and the plate, peel back the plastic wrap, and center a serving platter, right side down, over the top of the bowl.
- Invert the bowl, lift it off, and peel off the plastic wrap.
- Frost with sweetened whipped cream.
- Slice the cake as you would a pie, in wedge shaped pieces.
