Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and milk until well combined. Let it thicken for about 2 minutes.
  2. Gently mix in the eggnog until fully incorporated, creating a creamy base.
  3. Carefully fold in the whipped topping to maintain airy texture.
  4. Begin layering by placing half of the eclair shells in a rectangular dish. Spread half of the eggnog filling over the shells.
  5. Layer the remaining eclair shells on top, followed by the rest of the creamy eggnog mixture. Smooth the top.
  6. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Drizzle with chocolate sauce just before serving.

Notes

Best prepared a day in advance and served chilled. Top with a sprinkle of nutmeg for extra festive flavor.
