Chocolate-Peanut Butter Parfaits

[rtebalt]

1 cup heavy (whipping) cream
3⁄4 cup peanut butter chips
11⁄2 cups prepared chocolate pudding
Garnish: whipped cream and peanut butter chips

PREPARATION
1. Heat 1⁄2 cup cream in a medium glass bowl in microwave until steaming hot. Add chips; stir with a whisk until melted and smooth. Whisk in remaining cream. Refrigerate until cold.

2. Beat with mixer just until soft peaks form (don’t overbeat).

3. Spread 1 heaping Tbsp peanut butter mousse into bottom of each of 8 small (about 1⁄2 cup capacity) stemmed glasses. Spread with 1 heaping Tbsp chocolate pudding. Repeat layers once. Garnish and serve, or cover and refrigerate (without garnish) up to 1 day.

Different Takes

Replace peanut butter chips with butterscotch chips.

Instead of layering in glasses, spoon alternating dollops into small dessert bowls, then swirl mixtures together with the tip of a knife.

Sprinkle crumbled chocolate wafer cookies between layers and on top.
