Shannon’s Black Forest Parfait

Description:

I thought up this delightful dessert because my grandma adores anything black forest-themed, and I found myself with an excess of cherry pie filling. While the parfait tends to lean slightly towards the sweet-tart side, you can always adjust the sweetness by adding a touch more sweetener to the pie filling. However, I personally enjoy it with this subtle balance of flavors.

Ingredients:

  • 1 package sugar-free instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 2 packages sugar-free chocolate fudge pudding and pie filling mix
  • 24 nilla wafers
  • 1 cup skim milk

Recipe Instructions:

  1. Prepare Pudding: In a large bowl, combine the skim milk with the chocolate pudding mixes, whisking until well blended and smooth.

  2. Layer Parfait Glasses: Begin assembling the parfaits by placing one nilla wafer at the bottom of each of the 3 parfait glasses.

  3. Add Cherry Pie Filling: Spoon approximately 2 heaping tablespoons of cherry pie filling on top of the nilla wafer in each glass, spreading it out evenly.

  4. Layer with Pudding: Next, layer each glass with about 3 tablespoons of the prepared chocolate pudding mixture, ensuring it covers the cherry pie filling completely.

  5. Add Nilla Wafers: Place 3 nilla wafers on top of the pudding layer in each glass, pressing them down gently.

  6. Repeat Layers: Repeat the layers with another round of cherry pie filling, pudding, and nilla wafers until all the ingredients have been used, ending with a final layer of pudding on top.

  7. Refrigerate: Cover the parfait glasses with plastic wrap or lids and refrigerate them for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together and the nilla wafers to soften slightly.

  8. Serve and Enjoy: Once chilled, remove the parfaits from the refrigerator, unwrap, and serve immediately. Enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures in every spoonful!

Recipe Notes:

  • Feel free to customize these parfaits by adding layers of whipped cream or chocolate shavings between the pudding and cherry pie filling for an extra indulgent touch.
  • You can also garnish each parfait with a fresh cherry or a sprinkle of cocoa powder for a visually appealing presentation.
