This minty chocolate dessert tastes so light and refreshing. For fun, you can add some tempting finishing touches to the dessert parfaits. Top them with shaved chocolate, nuts or crumbled cookies. Or you can substitute vanilla or banana pudding.-Karalee Reinke, Omaha, Nebraska

I used dark chocolate chips in the chocolate pudding and it made the parfaits extra decadent.

I added a little bit of espresso powder to the chocolate pudding and it gave it a really nice flavor.
