Peachy Chocolate Mousse Parfaits
August 22, 2012
Parfait is described as a frozen dessert made out of base ingredients such as cream, egg, and sugar syrup. A parfait is basically composed of fat, sugar, alcohol and/or, to a lesser extent, air so as to let it be made through stirring occasionally while freezing. That said, you can whip it up in the comfort of your own home.
Try to do this yummy parfait recipe to celebrate National Peach Month this August. A promise is a promise, and I promised I'd give a peach-related recipe for this week on our Facebook page. Not a fan yet? Check our Facebook fan page and you know what to do!
