Such a great dessert recipe given to me by an online acquaintance, that I actually purchased parfait glasses for this, though totally unnecessary. When I brought them to the table my father-in-law said, "Wow! Did you 'make' those?" Made me smile. : ) They were a hit, but the kid's don't like the coconut (surprise, surprise). (Cook time is chill time)

Tips:

  • Use ripe limes. The more ripe the limes, the more juice they will produce. This will result in a more flavorful parfait.
  • Zest the limes before juicing them. The zest of a lime is very flavorful and will add a nice touch to the parfait. To zest a lime, use a fine grater to remove the outer layer of the peel.
  • Use a variety of cookies. You can use any type of cookie you like for this parfait. However, some cookies that work particularly well include chocolate chip cookies, shortbread cookies, and graham cracker cookies.
  • Layer the parfait in individual glasses or jars. This will make it easy to serve and will also look very elegant.
  • Chill the parfaits before serving. This will help them to set and will also make them more refreshing.

Conclusion:

Lime parfaits are a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and beautiful dessert that your friends and family will love.
