Bailey's Parfait image

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.

Time 10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

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)

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, beat all custard ingredients, except for chocolate, until thick and creamy, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Fold in the grated chocolate.
  • To assemble parfaits: In a tall parfait or sundae glass, pour a tablespoonful or so of the custard.
  • Top with a few cubes of pound cake.
  • Repeat this procedure, layering custard and pound cake, until you have as many layers as the glass can hold, ending with a custard layer.
  • Cover tops with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4-5 hours to 'set'.
  • Top with chocolate curls.
