  • 1/4 cup Natural Cocoa Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar

Instructions
 

  • Heat your oven to 350°F, grease and flour a 6-inch cake pan
  • In a small bowl combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt and baking soda.
  • In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment add the butter and sugar and mix on medium speed until light and airy, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
  • Mix in half the dry ingredients, then the milk and the rest of the dry ingredients. Scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed while mixing.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 16-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool completely before breaking into small pieces. The cake can be made ahead of time.
  • In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment add the heavy cream, whiskey and hazelnut liqueur and beat on medium-high speed until the heavy cream forms stiff peaks. Be sure not to over beat the whipped cream.
  • Remove about 1/4 of the whipped cream and save to top the parfaits.
  • Add the Nutella to the bowl and gently fold in to make the mousse.
  • Fill a parfait glass or mason jar 1/4 of the way with cake, then spoon 2 tablespoons of mousse, a few chopped hazelnuts and repeat until the glass is full.
  • Top with whipped cream and chopped hazelnuts.

Notes

  • If making the parfait ahead, cover and chill and remove from the refrigerator about 30 minutes prior to serving.
