CAFE AU LAIT PARFAITS
"This attractive layered pudding dessert looks especially inviting when served in clear dessert glasses or glass coffee mugs."

4 cups cold half-and-half or milk, divided use
1 (4 serving size) package vanilla flavor instant pudding and pie filling
4 teaspoons instant coffee, divided use
1 (4 serving size) package chocolate flavor instant pudding and pie filling
Whipped topping and cocoa powder or grated chocolate (optional, for garnish)
Pour 2 cups of the cold half-and-half into a medium bowl. Add the vanilla flavor pudding mix and 2 teaspoons of the instant coffee. Beat with a wire whisk for 2 minutes or until well blended.
Pour the remaining 2 cups of cold half-and-half into another medium bowl. Add the chocolate flavor pudding mix and the remaining 2 teaspoons of instant coffee. Beat with a wire whisk for 2 minutes or until well blended.
Remove 2/3 cup of each flavor of pudding from its bowl and whisk together in another medium bowl until well blended. Let all 3 pudding mixtures stand for 5 minutes.
Spoon the chocolate pudding evenly into 6 dessert glasses. Layer with the chocolate-vanilla pudding mixture; then top with the vanilla pudding. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until ready serve.
Garnish with whipped topping and cocoa powder or grated chocolate, if desired
VARIATION:
"The topping on this parfait is sprinkled with grated chocolate, but another garnish that would be delicious is toasted coconut. Toasting the coconut adds extra flavor."
Makes 6 servings
