CHOCOLATE KAHLUA MOUSSE PARFAITS

Perfect for summer, these parfaits are light and refreshing. They can make an elegant finish to your meal. Instead of chocolate graham crackers you could use crushed Oreos, but I think the richness of the Oreo overwhelms the light mousse flavor. Cooking time is Chill time. Note: If you chose a smaller glass, such as a champagne glass, you will get 6 servings instead of 4 and will need to adjust the layering amounts accordingly.

Time 2h15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup 2% low-fat milk, very cold
1/4 cup Kahlua
1 (3 1/8 ounce) envelope instant chocolate mousse mix
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/4 cups finely crushed chocolate graham crackers
1 1/2 cups Cool Whip, thawed
sugar wafers (optional) or Oreo cookies, etc, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the milk, kahlua, mousee, and cocoa. Whip on low speed until well blended. Slowly increase the mixer to high, whipping for 4-5 minutes, or until fluffy.
  • In 4 clear glass dessert bowls (or wine/champagne glasses), layer 1/8 of the mousse, 2-3 tablespoons of graham crumbs, and 3 tablespoons of Cool Whip.
  • If choosing to garnish with cracker crumbs rather than cookies, reserve about 1/4 teaspoon of the cookie crumbs. Repeat the layering, using the remaining ingredients.
  • If garnishing with crumbs, sprinkle the remaining crumbs on top of each serving. If garnishing with cookies, leave the top of the parfait empty for now.
  • Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Before serving, garnish with cookies if desired.

Categories     Dairy     Dessert     Freeze/Chill     Quick & Easy     Low Sodium     Coconut     Kahlúa     Summer     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 3

1/4 cup lightly toasted sweetened flaked coconut
3 tablespoons Kahlúa or other coffee-flavored liqueur
3/4 pint premium vanilla ice cream, softened slightly

Steps:

  • Put 3 layers each coconut, liqueur, and ice cream in each of 2 wineglasses or parfait glasses, reserving about 1 tablespoon coconut and 2 teaspoons liqueur. Top parfaits with reserved coconut and liqueur and freeze, covered, 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose a good quality Kahlua for the best flavor. A coffee-flavored liqueur with a smooth, rich taste will work best.
  • Make sure your ingredients are cold before you start. This will help the parfaits set up properly.
  • If you don't have any ladyfingers, you can substitute another type of cookie, such as shortbread or vanilla wafers.
  • Be careful not to overbeat the whipped cream. Overbeaten whipped cream will become stiff and grainy.
  • If you want a more decadent parfait, you can add a layer of chocolate sauce or caramel sauce between the layers.

Conclusion:

Kahlua parfaits are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a stunning dessert that will impress your friends and family. Whether you're looking for a classic dessert or something a little more unique, Kahlua parfaits are sure to please.
