Tipsy (or not) Brownie Parfaits

Tipsy (or not) Brownie Parfaits. Layers of Kahlua-soaked brownies, whipped cream with chocolate toffee & chocolate pudding. An easy & elegant dessert. Simply SatedWhen I see a recipe with “tipsy” in the title, I get a chuckle. I envision food that giggles for no reason and is just a little unsteady in the dish. Take Tipsy (or not) Brownie Parfait – can you see how tickled and jiggly it is? If you can’t tell that it has had a little too much happy juice, just check out what it’s wearing on top of its head – a whipped cream, raspberry, chocolate toffee hat with a mint leaves stuck in it. If that doesn’t scream “tipsy” I don’t know what does.

Simply SatedI’m sure Brownie Parfait’s giddiness isn’t due only to the Kahlua. If I had been created with layers of gooey brownies, whipped cream, chocolate toffee and chocolate pudding, I would wear a fancy hat and be as happy as a clam, too.

Recipe Notes

Brownie Parfaits can be layered directly over the pan of brownies. Instead of layering ingredients in parfait glasses, simply spread the layers of whipped topping and pudding over the brownies in this order bottom to top:
Brownies, whipped cream/toffee, chocolate pudding, whipped cream, crushed toffee candy pieces and raspberries & mint leaves (if desired).
**This dessert is just as delicious made with flavor substitutions such as white chocolate, cream cheese or other pudding flavors instead of chocolate pudding. Other liquer flavors can be substituted such as: Irish Cream liqueur or Amaretto instead of Kahlua or non-alcoholic coffee flavorings. Nuts can also be added.
