Ingredients

• 200 grams dark chocolate chips
• 480 ml heavy whipping cream
• 50 grams powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 300 grams fresh raspberries
• 50 grams granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 100 grams chocolate cookies (crumbled)
• 50 grams additional fresh raspberries
• 30 grams chocolate shavings or curls (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

1. Melt the dark chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl over simmering water (double boiler method) or in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between. Let the melted chocolate slightly cool.

Step 2

2. In a large bowl, whip 360 ml of heavy whipping cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Set aside 120 ml of the whipped cream for topping.

Step 3

3. Gently fold the melted chocolate into the remaining whipped cream until fully combined, creating a chocolate mousse. Do not overmix to retain a light texture.

Step 4

4. In a small saucepan, combine the fresh raspberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries break down into a sauce (about 5-7 minutes). Remove from heat and let the raspberry sauce cool completely.

Step 5

5. In serving glasses or small jars, start assembling the parfaits. Begin with a layer of crumbled chocolate cookies at the bottom of each glass.

Step 6

6. Add a layer of chocolate mousse on top of the cookie crumbles, smoothing the surface with the back of a spoon.

Step 7

7. Spoon a layer of raspberry sauce over the chocolate mousse, ensuring each layer is distinct.

Step 8

8. Repeat the layers once or twice more until the glasses are nearly full, ending with a dollop of the reserved whipped cream on top.

Step 9

9. Garnish each parfait with fresh raspberries and optionally sprinkle chocolate shavings or curls on top for added elegance.

Step 10

10. Chill the parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to let the flavors meld.
