Categories     dessert

Time 2h18m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups whole milk
2 (2.75-ounce) packages cook and serve vanilla pudding
1 (11-ounce) bag white chocolate chips, 1-ounce reserved for garnish
1 (11-ounce) bag dark chocolate chips, 1-ounce reserved for garnish
1 (11-ounce) bag milk chocolate chips, 1-ounce reserved for garnish

Steps:

  • In a medium pot combine milk and vanilla pudding mix, place over medium heat whisking constantly. Bring to a boil while continuing to whisk the mixture.
  • In 3 medium bowls place white, dark and milk chocolate chips. Combine reserved chips together in a small bowl, mix and set aside.
  • Remove mixture from the heat and evenly divide the hot pudding over the 3 bowls. Wait 1 minute then whisk the mixture to incorporate and melt the chips into the pudding.
  • Set up 3 resealable bags into 3 large glasses so that it will be easy to pour the warm pudding into the bags. Pour the pudding into separate bags. Tie the bags closed with a twist tie. Place pudding into the refrigerator for 2 hours, or until pudding is chilled and set.
  • Cut off the corner of each bag. Pipe each of the pudding mixtures evenly into 6 champagne glasses starting with the dark chocolate, white chocolate and ending with milk chocolate.
  • Garnish with reserved chocolate chips.

Tips:

  • To make sure your parfait layers are even, use a piping bag or a spoon to carefully spoon the ingredients into the parfait glasses.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a plastic baggie with the corner snipped off.
  • For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate pudding or even melted chocolate.
  • If you want a sweeter parfait, add a layer of fresh fruit, such as strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries.
  • For a more decadent parfait, add a layer of whipped cream or ice cream.
