I'm not a big fan of amaretto, so I used vanilla extract instead. The parfaits were still very good.

I had some trouble getting the custard to thicken. I think I may have overcooked it slightly.

These parfaits were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good. I think I would use less sugar in the custard next time.
