LEMONADE CHEESECAKE PARFAITS
My friends like the tartness of the pink lemonade layer against the sweetness of the cheesecake layer. For a pretty look, I top the parfaits with crushed pomegranate seeds and lemon zest. -Teena Petrus, Johnstown, Pennsylvania

[email protected]These parfaits were a bit too rich for me, but they were still very good. I think I would have preferred them with a lighter cheesecake filling.

[email protected]These parfaits were a bit too tart for my taste, but I think that's just because I used store-bought lemonade. Next time I'll try making my own lemonade with less sugar.
