If you’re a fan of cream puffs (which I totally am) you’re going to love this super easy eclair dessert. Because it’s make in a jelly roll pan it’s like one big eclair and it’s easy enough that a kid could make it. I love this dessert and I love that you can mix and match fillings and toppings. This one happens to be pumpkin and Nutella.
Pumpkin Eclair Dessert–This is an updated recipe from November 2013.
Ooooo I just love desserts like this. I love the pudding, cream cheese, cool whip, crust and topping. I love it all! I used the seasonally available Pumpkin Jello Pudding but if you can’t find it just substitute it with vanilla pudding or butterscotch or whatever kind you like the best. This is a great dessert to serve at a holiday party or at a shower. I hope you like it as much as I did!
Preheat oven to 400°. Bring water and butter to a boil, remove from heat and whisk in flour. Transfer to a plastic or glass bowl and using a hand mixer, mix in eggs one at a time. Spread evenly on a large greased cookie sheet or jellyroll pan. Bake at 400° for 15-20 minutes until light golden brown. Let cool completely before topping.
In a mixing bowl, add the milk to the pudding mix and mix thoroughly. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until it becomes fluffy. Gradually add the pudding mixture slowly as you continually beat the mixture. Spread pudding mixture on the completely cooled crust and then immediately top with cool whip.
Heat the Nutella and milk in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until melted and heated through. Remove from heat and drizzle sauce over the top of the cool whip.
Please post how many inches your pan measures. Thanks.
It is 10 x 15 x 1 inch!
