Servings

  • Makes 4 parfaits

Time

  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 5 minutes (for Nutella syrup)
  • Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

For the parfaits:

  • 2 cups brownie chunks (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1 ½ cups whipped cream or whipped topping
  • ¼ cup chocolate shavings or crushed hazelnuts (for garnish)

For the Nutella syrup:

  • ½ cup Nutella
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Nutella syrup: In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the Nutella, heavy cream, and butter. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and glossy, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let it cool slightly.
  2. Assemble the parfaits: In serving glasses, layer brownie chunks at the bottom, followed by a dollop of whipped cream, then a drizzle of Nutella syrup. Repeat the layers until the glass is full, finishing with a final swirl of whipped cream.

Tips

  • Use different textures by adding crushed cookies or nuts between layers.
  • Let the Nutella syrup cool slightly before drizzling to prevent melting the whipped cream.
  • For a boozy twist, add a splash of hazelnut liqueur to the whipped cream.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days.
