This very elegant dessert is great served on a warm summer night or at a dinner party, suggests Jennifer Eilts of Lincoln, Nebraska. You can substitute other types of berries until you find your favorite combination. Ingredients:
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream |
1/4 cup sugar |
2 teaspoons cornstarch |
2 egg yolks |
4 ounces white baking chocolate, chopped |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
3 cups whipped topping |
1-1/2 cups fresh blueberries |
1-1/2 cups fresh raspberries |
sliced strawberries and additional whipped topping, optional |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine the cream, sugar and cornstarch. Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture reaches 160° or is thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon.
2. Stir a small amount into egg yolks; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes; stir in chocolate until melted. Remove from the heat; gently stir in vanilla.
3. Cool to room temperature, about 15 minutes. Fold in whipped topping. Place 1/4 cup each in four parfait glasses.
4. Combine blueberries and raspberries; place 1/4 cup in each glass. Repeat layers of chocolate mixture and berries twice. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Garnish with strawberries and whipped topping if desired. Yield: 4 servings.
