Strawberry Parfait

A quick and easy dessert recipe just fancy enough to make for Valentine's Day, enjoyable for kids and adults.

Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 12 oz pound cake
  • 3.4 oz instant cheesecake pudding
  • 2 cups milk
  • 20 strawberries
  • 1 can whipped cream

Instructions

  1. Cut the pound cake into ~1" slices then cut each slice into 6 cubes.

  2. Make the instant cheesecake pudding by whisking the milk and pudding mix for about 2 minutes or until the pudding thickens. 

  3. After removing the tops of 16 strawberries cut each into 3-4 slices.

  4. Assemble the parfaits by layering the ingredients in the following way - pound cake pieces, pudding, strawberries.  How many layers you do will depend on your glass size.  I was able to make four parfaits, each with three sections of the layers.

  5. With the last four strawberries cut each 3-4 times 3/4 of the way up to the green top and fan out to use as a garnish.

  6. Top the parfait with whipped cream and a strawberry fan.
