Strawberries And Stripes Parfait Recipes

EASY STRAWBERRY PUDDING PARFAITS

Steps:

• Prepare vanilla pudding according to package directions, except do not chill.
• In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, stir together strawberries, jam, and sugar until jam is melted and the mixture is heated through, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat.
• In each of 4 parfait glasses, layer 1/8 of the pudding and 1/8 of the strawberry sauce. Repeat layers. Chill 45 minutes, or until set, before serving.

STRAWBERRY PARFAIT RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Place the amaretti biscuits in a plastic bag and gently crush using a rolling pin until they resemble coarse sand. Remove a couple of tablespoons and keep to the side for garnish. Spoon an even amount into the base of four glass dessert dishes or wine glasses. Press the crushed biscuit crumb firmly with the back of a spatula, then carefully, without disturbing the crumb, spoon over the amaretto. Pop the glasses into the refrigerator while you prepare the rest of the parfait.
• Wash, hull , and dry the strawberries.
• Choose three or four of the largest, well-shaped strawberries and slice as thinly as you can. Then, finely chop the remaining strawberries. Once the biscuit base is chilled, take the slices and lay evenly into the base and up the sides of the glasses in an even line. Repeat with a second row behind and overlapping with the previous fruit, reserving a few slices of strawberry for decoration. Fill the well in the middle of the sliced fruit with half of the chopped strawberries. Return the glasses to the refrigerator.
• Whip the cream, vanilla extract, and confectioners' sugar using a stand or hand mixer to create stiff peaks. Take care not to overwhip the cream, which can soon become over-stiff and will be hard to pipe into the glasses.
• Pipe the cream into each glass using a piping bag fitted with a large plain nozzle or layer using a spoon. Top with another layer of chopped strawberries and finish with more cream. Decorate with a few slices of strawberries and a little amaretti crumb.
• Serve. If the parfaits are not to be eaten immediately, cover each glass with plastic wrap and keep in the refrigerator. They are best eaten the same day.

• Meanwhile, cut the pound cake into 1/2-inch cubes. Halve remaining strawberries lengthwise and add to cooled sauce, tossing to coat. In each of 8 parfait or tall stemmed glasses, layer 2 tablespoons strawberry mixture and 1/3 cup pound cake, 2 tablespoons strawberry mixture and 2 tablespoons whipped topping. Top with 2 tablespoons blueberries, 2 tablespoons whipped topping and 1 tablespoon coconut.

STRAWBERRY PARFAIT WITH VIN SANTO, MASCARPONE & BISCOTTI

Steps:

• Place the biscotti biscuits in a plastic bag and crush them lightly with the end of a rolling pin, leaving them slightly chunky. Tip the crushed biscuits into a bowl, drizzle over the Vin Santo and give it a stir. In small bowl, use a fork to slightly mash half of the strawberries with the sugar.
• Whip the mascarpone in a medium bowl, then fold into the whipped cream. If the mixture appears too thick fold through a little milk. In a 1-litre glass bowl, spread half of the soaked biscotti. Top with half of the mashed strawberries and then half of the mascarpone mixture. Repeat until you have used up everything. Slice the remaining strawberries and scatter over the top.
