Chocolate Tiramisu Parfaits Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese, sugar and vanilla. Fold in 1 1/3 cups of whipped cream. Dunk ladyfingers in prepared coffee. Halve and place layer of ladyfingers in the bottom of 4 tall parfait glasses. Spoon half of cheese mixture over ladyfingers. Top with another layer of ladyfingers and remaining cheese mixture. Top with remaining ladyfingers. Spoon remaining whipped cream over top. Sift cocoa over whipped topping and garnish with grated semisweet chocolate.

Steps:

• Place the mascarpone cheese in a large bowl and set aside. With an electric mixer, beat the cream and 1/4 cup of the sugar in a medium bowl until soft peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone. Then fold in the chilled Chocolate Zabaglione. Cover and refrigerate.
• Whisk the warmed espresso and the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar in another medium bowl until blended. Line a 9 1/4 by 5 by 2 3/4-inch metal loaf pan with plastic wrap, allowing the plastic to extend over the sides. Working with 1 cookie at a time, dip 8 cookies into the espresso, and arrange in a single layer side by side over the bottom of the prepared pan.
• Spoon 1/3 of the mascarpone mixture over the cookies to cover. Repeat dipping 8 of the cookies in the espresso and layering the cookies and remaining mascarpone mixture 2 more times. Dip the remaining 8 cookies in the espresso and arrange side by side atop the tiramisu. Press lightly to compact slightly (the last layer will extend above the pan sides). Cover the tiramisu with plastic and refrigerate at least 6 hours.
• Unwrap the plastic from atop the tiramisu. Invert the tiramisu onto a platter. Remove the plastic. Sift the cocoa over the tiramisu, and with a vegetable peeler or sharp knife, make dark chocolate shavings and sprinkle over top.
• Add cream and chocolate to a heavy small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until the chocolate chips are melted and smooth. Set aside and keep warm.
• Whisk the egg yolks, sugar, Marsala, and salt in a large glass bowl until blended. Set the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, but do not allow the bottom of the bowl to touch the water. Whisk the egg mixture over the simmering water until it is thick and creamy, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Using a large rubber spatula, fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture. Cover and refrigerate to chill completely.

Steps:

• In medium bowl, beat cream cheese with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Beat in ricotta cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla until creamy. Beat in yogurt until well blended. In small bowl, mix espresso and liqueur.
• In 8 small parfait glasses or clear drinking glasses, layer half of the ladyfingers, half of the espresso mixture and half of the cheese mixture. Sprinkle each with about 3/4 teaspoon grated chocolate. Repeat layers.
• Cover; refrigerate at least 1 hour to blend flavors but no longer than 4 hours. Store covered in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Beat cream cheese in large bowl with mixer until creamy. Gradually beat in milk. Add dry pudding mix; beat 1 min. Gently stir in 2 cups COOL WHIP.
• Mix coffee and caramel topping until blended. Place half the cake cubes in 10 parfait glasses; drizzle with half the coffee mixture. Cover with half the cream cheese mixture, then 1/3 of the grated chocolate. Repeat layers.
• Top with remaining COOL WHIP and chocolate. Refrigerate 4 hours.

Steps:

• Make parfaits
• Beat cream in small bowl until stiff peaks form. Cover; chill. Combine 4 yolks, 1/3 cup sugar, 3 tablespoons water, liqueur and espresso powder in medium metal bowl. Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water (do not let bowl touch water). Using handheld mixer, beat mixture until thickened and thermometer registers 175°F., about 5 minutes. Remove from over water; beat until mixture cools, about 6 minutes. Fold in one 8-ounce container mascarpone, then half of whipped cream. Refrigerate espresso cream mixture.
• Combine remaining 4 yolks, orange juice, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, Grand Marnier and orange peel in another medium metal bowl. Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water (do not let bowl touch water). Using handheld mixer fitted with clean dry beaters, beat yolk mixture until thickened and thermometer registers 175°F., about 7 minutes. Remove from over water; continue beating until mixture cools, about 6 minutes. Fold in second container of mascarpone, then remaining whipped cream.
• Spoon 1/4 cup espresso mousse, then 1/4 cup orange mousse into each of four 10-ounce goblets. Repeat layering with remaining mousse mixtures. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• Make espresso syrup
• Stir 1/2 cup water, sugar and espresso powder in small saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Refrigerate until cold.
• Dip 1 biscotti halfway into espresso syrup. Insert syrup-coated section into 1 parfait. Repeat with remaining biscotti and syrup. Sprinkle cocoa over parfaits.
