Mix the milk and the pudding mix together in a medium-size bowl. Stir in the whipped topping and set the mixture aside.

Arrange a single layer of graham crackers in the bottom of an 8-inch square glass baking dish. Spread about 1 cup of the pudding mixture over the crackers. Top with another layer of crackers and another layer of pudding mixture. Continue layering until all of the pudding mixture is used. Top with a final layer of crackers.

Spread the chocolate frosting over the top layer of crackers, spreading it all the way to the edges. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or up to 24 hours, before serving.

Note: Leftover chocolate frosting can be covered and refrigerated for up to 2 weeks. Let it stand at room temperature for at least 20 minutes before spreading.
