Ingredients Required: Choc-Van Parfait
Preparation Instructions: Choc-Van Parfait
| Prepare Chocolate Pastry Cream and carefully pour
into the parfait glasses while it is still hot. |
| Prepare Vanilla Pastry Cream and carefully pour
into the parfait glasses while it is still hot. The Chocolate
pastry cream should have a bit of a skin to it so the two creams will
not mix if the Vanilla is poured on top carefully. Chill. |
| Whip the whipping cream in a chilled deep container,
and spoon on top of the chilled vanilla pastry cream. |
| From a piece of room temperature chocolate make
a few pieces of chocolate shavings. Garnish the top of the parfaits. |
| Using a decorative dessert cookie - press it through
the whipped cream and into the pastry cream. |
| Add the flavoring to the pastry creams while they
are hot. A small amount of Rhum or Peppermint flavor can be used in
the Chocolate pastry cream. |
