Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

One 17 1/2-ounce container plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup brown sugar
Assorted berries (or other fruit of your choice)

Steps:

  • First, pour the yogurt into a bowl. Then add the cream and vanilla. With a whisk, carefully stir until combined. It should be nice and thick.
  • Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the top of the yogurt mixture. Do not stir the mixture. Cover the bowl with foil or plastic wrap and tightly seal the edges. Place in the refrigerator for at least 20 to 30 minutes.
  • When you are ready to serve, place a small handful of berries (or other fruit) into a bowl or cup. Without stirring the mixture, spoon the yogurt over the berries. There will be creamy areas and brown sugar areas. Repeat the layers once, ending with berries on top.

Tips:

  • For a thicker parfait, use Greek yogurt or strained yogurt.
  • To make the parfaits more flavorful, use a variety of yogurt flavors, such as honey, vanilla, or berry.
  • Add some crunch to the parfaits with granola, chopped nuts, or crumbled cookies.
  • For a refreshing parfait, use frozen yogurt or sorbet instead of regular yogurt.
  • Make the parfaits ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator overnight for a quick and easy breakfast or snack.
