Let cool and refrigerate for about 4+ hours. Serve with whipped cream.

Pour into 4 parfait glasses. Cover each glass with plastic wrap and let the plastic sit DIRECTLY on top of the pudding to make sure that a skin does not form on the pudding. Refrigerate for about 4+ hours.

To make the whipped cream, pour heavy whipping cream into a mixer and use whisk attachment. Whisk on high speed until stiff peaks from. Sprinkle the sugar over the top and mix for a few seconds. This can also be done with a hand held mixer. Shaved chocolate can be used as a garnish.
