Chocolate Éclair Cake

When once more the host of regulars found their way back to the Roediger House last Friday, the dessert served up was another special request. This time it was a pan of chocolate éclair cake, something I'd not made in almost two years. Around here we also sometimes enjoy an eggnog version at the holidays but this standard and original old stand-by has been, well, neglected.

I'm no food stylist, and when you've got six people's bowls to fill, considerations of a photogenic nature drop pretty far down my priority list. We'll leave the pretty staged shots to the food bloggers, and in the real world of human appetites ready for their sweet evening finisher, the slices will come out sporting an honest and uncontrived face. As long as the crew is happy with the taste, I'll let the photography medals go to others.
