BLUEBERRY LEMON PARFAIT
I adapted this recipe from one I found online that used blueberries, lemon yogurt, and crushed gingersnap cookies. I couldn't find lemon yogurt and I needed some cake in there! A great and easy summer dessert. Variation: If you don't like yogurt, try this with lemon pudding! Or change it up and use lemon pound cake with white chocolate pudding!

Steps:
- Set aside 1/2 cup blueberries for garnish. Put remaining blueberries and 1/4 cup sugar in a medium saucepan. Cover; cook over medium heat 5 minutes. Uncover; cook, tossing occasionally, until berries begin to darken, 2 to 3 minutes. Bring to a boil; cook 1 minute more. Pour into a medium nonreactive bowl (glass or ceramic); let cool completely.
- Put yogurt, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and the lemon juice in a medium bowl. Set aside 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest for garnish. Very finely chop remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon zest, then stir into yogurt. Set yogurt aside.
- Divide blueberry sauce evenly among six juice glasses. Divide yogurt among glasses, and spoon over sauce. Sprinkle parfaits with reserved berries and zest. If not serving immediately, refrigerate, covered with plastic wrap, for up to 3 hours.
Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe blueberries for the best flavor.
- If you don't have fresh blueberries, you can use frozen blueberries that have been thawed and drained.
- Make sure the cream is very cold before whipping it.
- Don't overbeat the whipped cream, or it will become grainy.
- Layer the parfait in a tall glass or jar, alternating between blueberries, whipped cream, and lemon curd.
- Chill the parfait for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Garnish the parfait with a fresh blueberry or a lemon zest.
Conclusion:
