Steps:
- Put 3 layers each coconut, liqueur, and ice cream in each of 2 wineglasses or parfait glasses, reserving about 1 tablespoon coconut and 2 teaspoons liqueur. Top parfaits with reserved coconut and liqueur and freeze, covered, 20 minutes.
CHOCOLATE KAHLUA MOUSSE PARFAITS
Perfect for summer, these parfaits are light and refreshing. They can make an elegant finish to your meal. Instead of chocolate graham crackers you could use crushed Oreos, but I think the richness of the Oreo overwhelms the light mousse flavor. Cooking time is Chill time. Note: If you chose a smaller glass, such as a champagne glass, you will get 6 servings instead of 4 and will need to adjust the layering amounts accordingly.

Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the milk, kahlua, mousee, and cocoa. Whip on low speed until well blended. Slowly increase the mixer to high, whipping for 4-5 minutes, or until fluffy.
- In 4 clear glass dessert bowls (or wine/champagne glasses), layer 1/8 of the mousse, 2-3 tablespoons of graham crumbs, and 3 tablespoons of Cool Whip.
- If choosing to garnish with cracker crumbs rather than cookies, reserve about 1/4 teaspoon of the cookie crumbs. Repeat the layering, using the remaining ingredients.
- If garnishing with crumbs, sprinkle the remaining crumbs on top of each serving. If garnishing with cookies, leave the top of the parfait empty for now.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Before serving, garnish with cookies if desired.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality coffee. The coffee flavor will shine through in the parfait, so use a dark roast coffee that you enjoy.
- Make the coffee ahead of time. This will give it time to cool completely before assembling the parfaits.
- Use a variety of toppings. This will add visual interest and flavor to the parfaits. Some good options include whipped cream, chocolate shavings, nuts, and berries.
- Layer the parfaits carefully. Start with a layer of coffee, then add a layer of whipped cream, then a layer of toppings. Repeat until the parfait glass is full.
- Serve the parfaits immediately. They are best enjoyed fresh.
