Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Place a mixing bowl in the freezer to chill.
- Combine the water, butter, and salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the flour. Cook and stir until the mixture pulls away from the sides of the pan and forms a ball. Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl and beat in the eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated. Spread the dough evenly in the bottom of the baking dish.
- Bake the pastry in the preheated oven until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. (The dough will rise and make a boat shape, but should drop as it cools.) Cool completely on wire rack.
- Remove the chilled mixing bowl from the freezer and pour in 2 cups of cold whipping cream. Whip until the cream thickens, about 1 minute; stir in the confectioners' sugar and the vanilla extract. Continue to whip until the cream forms stiff peaks. Refrigerate the whipped cream while you mix the pudding.
- Pour the pudding mixes and the milk into a mixing bowl and stir until creamy. Fold in the whipped cream. Spread the filling over the cooled crust and refrigerate.
- Place the chopped chocolate in a heat-proof bowl. Bring 1 cup of cream almost to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and allow it to soften for 1 minute. Whisk the mixture until smooth. Let the mixture cool slightly to thicken, about 10 minutes. Pour the ganache over the cream filling, spreading to cover the entire surface. Return the pan to the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour before serving.

DRIZZLED CHOCOLATE ECLAIR CAKE
I made this cake in my teenage years for a youth activity. It has been many years since, and I wanted to make it for a party not to long ago. I figured recipezaar would have a similar one, I searched, but I couldn't find anything remotely close. I tracked down the woman who taught us how to make this, and since there wasn't one like this I thought I would share it with you. It is delicious, a great dessert to take to anywhere!

Steps:
- PASTRY: In a sauce pan bring to boil butter, salt, and water. After it is boiling add in flour and stir until it forms a ball.
- Take off heat and add 4 eggs one at a time. Beating by hand until mixed thoroughly. (They will kinda look slippery and the flour ball will separate into chunks. Keep stirring the egg will eventually mix inches It is SO important that you add them one at a time. )
- Lightly spray jelly roll pan with a nonstick cooking spray and spread mixture in bottom of pan. (It is a little stiff, I use a spoon and run it under hot water to help it spread better.).
- Bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes. It will puff up you may want to poke the bubbles with a fork. Take out of oven and let it cool completely.
- FILLING: Beat both packages of french vanila instant pudding with milk. Add softened cream cheese. Beat again. Spread on cooled pastry. Spread whipped topping over top of pudding mixture.
- GLAZE: In a bowl mix chocolate chips and butter, put in microwave for 1 minute or until melted. Add milk and powdered sugar and mix well. Drizzle over top of whipped cream and chill in fridge.

PAULA DEEN'S CHOCOLATE ECLAIR CAKE
There are other similar recipes, but this one is simply spectacular! I think it's because I have added an extra layer of the "frosting" to the middle. As if it needed to be richer... This recipe is from Paula Deen and I have simply doubled the frosting and just added another layer within the cake. As with other Eclair Cakes, this one is better if it sits in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours. Hard to resist digging in any sooner!
