Ingredients

Chocolate Cream

  • 1 can Sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 can Whole milk
  • 3 tbsp nesquick chocolate
  • 1 tbs cocoa powder {unsweetened}
  • 2 tbsp conrstarch

Parfait

  • 1 sliced bananas
  • 12 oz graham cracker {if has nuts it’s better like cashew. If not, honey do the trick too}
  • 1 can whip cream.

Instructions

MAKE THE CHOCOLATE CREAM

  • In a medium pot, pour the condensed milk and both chocolates over low-medium heat. Mix until well combined.
  • Using the same condensed mil can measure the milk to 1/2 of the can and add the cornstarch and mix it well in a small bowl.
  • Pour the cornstarch mixture into the pot with the chocolate mixture and mix until combined.
  • Bring to a simmer over low heat while constantly stirring with (a wooden spoon or whisk) to avoid scorching until it’s thickened.
  • This part of the process may take about 20-25 minutes. The mixture is supposed to be very thick.
  • It is supposed to be thick as a pudding or a mouse.
  • Once done, put it aside to cool down.

PREPARE THE PARFAITS

  • Now, turn the graham crackers into crumbs with a food processor or put them in a zip-lock bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
  • Arrange some cute glasses or jars (they can be mason jars, big glasses, or even cups).
  • Start layering one layer of graham crackers, one of chocolate cream, and one of the sliced bananas.
  • Repeat the layers as many times as you like or that fit in your glass.
  • Finish it up with a good amount of whipped cream.
  • Topped them with chocolate powder on top.
  • Alternatively, you can also top the parfaits with cookie crumbs, banana slices, and even why not, fun sprinkles!
  • Serve and enjoy!
