Tips:
- Use good quality chocolate. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your parfaits. Look for chocolate that is at least 60% cacao.
- Don't over-mix the brownie batter. Over-mixing will make the brownies tough.
- Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. If you bake them too long, they will be dry.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely before assembling the parfaits. This will help to prevent the layers from becoming muddy.
- Use a variety of toppings. This will add interest and flavor to your parfaits. Some good options include caramel sauce, whipped cream, chopped nuts, and fresh berries.
- Serve the parfaits immediately. This will ensure that the layers are still distinct and the brownies are still warm and gooey.
