By gaster16

Ingredients

• 2 cups coarsely grated bittersweet chocolate (about 6 ounces)
• 1 cup hazelnuts toasted husked coarsely chopped (4.5 ounces)
• 1/3 cup packed golden brown sugar
• 1 cup rolled oats (do not use instant)
• 1-3/4 cups chilled heavy whipping cream
• 1/3 cup sour cream
• 3 tablespoons sugar
• 1/3 cup whiskey

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix chocolate, hazelnuts, and brown sugar in medium bowl. Spread oats out on rimmed baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 7 minutes. Stir hot oats into chocolate mixture, set aside until chocolate firms, at least 2 hours. Using electric mixer, beat whipping cream, sour cream, and sugar in large bowl until cream mixture holds peaks. Fold in whiskey.

In glasses layer 1/4 cup cream mixture, and 1/4 cup oat mixture, repeat layering. Top each parfait with 1/4 cup cream mixture and sprinkle with oat mixture. Chill overnight.
