Preparation Steps
1
Finely chop or mince the pecans, then toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, until their flavors become more intense.
2
Combine the egg yolks with the brown sugar and vanilla sugar, and mix until smooth and fluffy.
3
Pour the bourbon into a small saucepan and heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until it comes to a simmer and the alcohol evaporates. Let it cool.
4
In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, being careful not to overwhip it, so it retains its fluffy texture.
5
Pour the cooled bourbon and sugar egg yolk mixture into the whipped cream, then gently and continuously stir to combine until the mixture is smooth.
6
Gently fold the toasted pecans into the mixture. If desired, reserve a few extra pecans for garnish when serving.
7
Pour the prepared mixture into a suitable container and place in the freezer for at least 4 hours to allow the parfait to solidify.
8
Before serving, garnish the top of the parfait with extra pecans and a drizzle of bourbon for an even more intense flavor.
