Ingredients

• 6 oz Semi-sweet chocolate
• 2 cups Milk
• 3 tbsp Granulated sugar
• 2 tbsp Cornstarch
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 3 tbsp Kahlua coffee liqueur
• 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
• 2 tbsp Powdered sugar
• 10 pieces Chocolate cookies
• 2 tbsp Dark chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Step 1: In a medium saucepan, melt the semi-sweet chocolate over low heat, stirring frequently to avoid burning.

Step 2

Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of milk with the cornstarch until smooth. Set aside.

Step 3

Step 3: Gradually add the remaining milk, granulated sugar, and melted chocolate to the saucepan. Stir constantly over medium heat.

Step 4

Step 4: Once the mixture is slightly warm, add the cornstarch mixture. Cook and stir continuously until the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency (about 8-10 minutes).

Step 5

Step 5: Remove the pudding from heat, then stir in the vanilla extract and Kahlua liqueur. Let the pudding cool to room temperature.

Step 6

Step 6: In a chilled mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar together using an electric hand mixer until soft peaks form.

Step 7

Step 7: Crush the chocolate cookies into coarse crumbs. Set aside.

Step 8

Step 8: Assemble the parfaits by layering the chocolate pudding, whipped cream, and crushed cookies in individual serving glasses. Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled.

Step 9

Step 9: Top each parfait with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle dark chocolate shavings on top for garnish (optional).

Step 10

Step 10: Chill the assembled parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
