Red, White & Blue Parfait
June 27, 2012
Earlier this week we shared our new 4th of July ice cream cake recipe. This is our second take on the Independence Day dessert: a very cool red, white & blue parfait!
Makes 4-5 parfaits
You will need:
- 1 qt of blueberries
- 1 qt of strawberries
- Vanilla, All Natural Vanilla Bean, French Vanilla or All American Perry’s Ice Cream
- whipped cream
- star fruit for garnish (optional)
- American Flag cocktail sticks or any other decorative sticks (optional)
Directions:
- Wash and cut strawberries
- Layer strawberries on the bottom of parfait glasses
- Second layer – ice cream – try to add “shaves” of ice cream instead of round scoops to create a flat layer
- Layer blueberries next
- Optional: If your parfait glass height allows add another layer of ice cream followed by a layer of strawberries
- Place your parfaits in the freezer until you are ready to serve
- Pull parfaits out, add whipped cream as the top layer
- Optional: garnish with starfruit, strawberries and decorative cocktail sticks
