A decadent dessert to make for company when you haven't got a lot of time. These really need to 'set' for at least 4-5 hours before serving (so they're an ideal make-ahead), and life can be made even simpler by using a good-quality, purchased pound cake. Ingredients:
1 cup baileys' irish cream |
8 ounces cream cheese, softened |
1 cup whipping cream |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 cup bittersweet chocolate, grated |
4 -5 slices of thick poundcake, cut into cubes |
3/4 cup chocolate curls (approximately) |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, beat all custard ingredients, except for chocolate, until thick and creamy, about 3-4 minutes. 2. Fold in the grated chocolate. 3. To assemble parfaits: In a tall parfait or sundae glass, pour a tablespoonful or so of the custard. 4. Top with a few cubes of pound cake. 5. Repeat this procedure, layering custard and pound cake, until you have as many layers as the glass can hold, ending with a custard layer. 6. Cover tops with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4-5 hours to 'set'. 7. Top with chocolate curls. |
