INSTRUCTIONS
For Parfait: Line 9x5-inch loaf pan with plastic wrap. Puree berries
and 1/4 cup sugar in blender until just smooth. Strain. Measure 1 1/3
cups puree and place in heavy small saucepan. (Reserve any remaining
puree for sauce.) Simmer 1 1/3 cups puree over medium heat until
reduced to scant 1 cup, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes.
Transfer to bowl and chill 30 minutes. Stir in cassis and lemon juice.
Refrigerate reduced puree until ready to use. Combine 3/4 cup sugar,
water and yolks in medium metal bowl. Set bowl over saucepan of
simmering water. Using hand-held electric mixer, beat yolk mixture
until it registers 140F on candy thermometer, occasionally scraping
down sides of bowl, about 5 minutes. Continue cooking 3 minutes,
beating constantly. Remove from over water. Add warm melted chocolate
and vanilla extract and beat until cool. Beat whipping cream in
another large bowl to stiff peaks. Gently mix 1/4 of whipped cream
into chocolate mixture. Fold in remaining whipped cream. Transfer 1
1/3 cups chocolate mixture to medium bowl. Fold in reduced berry
puree. Fill prepared loaf pan with 1/3 of remaining chocolate mixture.
Cover with berry-chocolate mixture. Top with remaining chocolate
mixture. Smooth top. Freeze parfait overnight. (Can be prepared 2 days
ahead.) For Sauce: Puree frozen boysenberries, sugar and crème de
cassis in blender or processor until smooth. Strain. Add any berry
puree reserved from parfait. Unmold frozen parfait. Peel off plastic
wrap. Slice into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Drizzle with sauce. Garnish
with berries and fresh mint sprigs. Serves 6. Bon Appetit April 1991
