By Linda Larsen, About.com

Try using other fruits (like raspberries or grapes) in this super easy recipe. Or try a different cookie. Golden sandwich cookies, pirouette cookies, or lace cookies would be a nice change.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1-1/4 cups sugar cookie crumbs or shortbread cookie crumbs
  • 5 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 cup lemon curd or lemon pie filling
  • 2/3 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • pinch salt
  • 2-1/2 cups blueberries

Preparation:

In small bowl, combine cookie crumbs and butter and mix. In small bowl, combine cream, powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt and beat until stiff.

Using 4 parfait glasses, layer 3 tablespoons buttered cookie crumbs, 2 tablespoons lemon curd, 1/4 cup blueberries, and 2 tablespoons whipped cream in each glass.

Repeat layers until glasses are full. Reserve 1/2 cup blueberries. Cover parfaits and chill in refrigerator until serving time, or you can serve them immediately. Top with reserved blueberries and serve with iced tea spoons. 4 servings
