Oat & Chocolate Parfait

Ingredients:

• 1 cup instant oats
• 2 cups water
• 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp coconut milk
• 2 tbsp water
• 1/4 cup + 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1/4 tsp instant coffee powder
• 1 pinch salt

Directions:

Dry roast the oats for a few minutes and let it cool completely. Once cool, grind it into a fine powder. Combine the oats powder with the rest of the ingredients (except the 1/4 cup chocolate chips and 2 tbsp coconut milk) in a pan and slowly bring it to a boil stirring continuously. Let it cook for a minute or two till the oats is cooked through.

To make the parfait, spoon some chocolate oatmeal into a small glass and place some chocolate chips on it. Top it with more oatmeal and one more layer of chocolate chips. Cover it with one last layer of oatmeal. Do this when your oatmeal is still hot as that will help the chocolate chips melt.

Finally drizzle the coconut milk and a couple of chocolate chips on top to garnish.

Serve hot.
