Strawberry Parfait is a French dessert made with fresh strawberries and cream. Finally layeres in a jar and served chilled.
Parfait is a French dessert which is made usually in a tall glass with various layers made of cream, fruits and eggs and it was the Americans who made it more fancy by adding in granolas, nuts and gelatin based desserts (wiki) .This French dessert is so easy and quick to make with the easily available homemade ingredients and today I am sharing an easy version with Strawberry, biscuits and whipped cream.
My daughter loves this mini shot glasses and hence I have used them to prepare the parfaits .You can use any tall glasses and repeat the layers which I have used. Now let’s get started.Strawberries are in season now hence this is the best time to give this recipe a shot.
And this would be my 300thblog post. So happy to reach this mile stone in a short span of time J
