Fourth of July Parfait
If you need a quick dessert for a Fourth of July celebration that involves no cooking time, look no further than the parfait. Involving just three ingredients and highlighting fresh fruit of the season, parfaits can be prepared and assembled in plenty of time for a cookout, barbecue, or other event, leaving more time to enjoy Independence Day festivities.
Recipe for Parfait
2 boxes pudding mix: white chocolate, cheesecake, or vanilla
20-24 strawberries, or to taste
1 dry pint blueberries
whipped cream (optional)
Prepare the pudding according to the package directions; chill for about fifteen minutes. Wash, hull, and slices the strawberries. Rinse the blueberries.
Add two to three heaping tablespoons of pudding to the bottom of each glass. Add a small handful (I have small hands) to each glass. Add two to three more heaping tablespoons of pudding on top of the blueberries. Add two to four sliced strawberries to each glass. Add two to three more heaping of pudding on top of the strawberries. Add the remaining strawberry slices and blueberries, in a decorative pattern that pleases you, on top of the pudding. If desired, add a dollop of whipped cream on top.
Serves 4.
