LEMON BLACKBERRY CHEESECAKE PARFAIT
Steps:
- For the lemon curd: Combine the granulated sugar, butter, lemon zest and juice and egg in a large microwave-safe bowl (the mixture will bubble and triple in volume during cooking). Microwave on high in 1-minute intervals, stopping to remove the bowl and stir well after each interval. Continue until the curd thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 6 minutes. Strain into a clean bowl, cover the surface with plastic wrap and cool in the refrigerator (the curd will continue to thicken as it cools).
- For the lemon cheesecake layer: Combine the cream cheese, cream, confectioner's sugar, lemon zest and juice and extract in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer until it holds stiff peaks. If the cream cheese isn't very soft, you may have to whip for up to 5 minutes to get the lumps out. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- For the parfait: Divide half of the cake among six 2-cup mason jars or glasses (1/2 cup of cake per jar). Top with about half of the cream cheese mixture (about 1/4 cup) followed by all of the lemon curd. Divide the remaining cake, followed by the cream cheese mixture, among the jars. Top with the blackberries. Eat immediately or refrigerate up to 4 hours.

[email protected]I had some trouble getting the cheesecake filling to set properly. I think I might have overbeaten it. Other than that, the parfait was delicious.

[email protected]This parfait was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less sugar in the cheesecake filling. Otherwise, it was a good recipe.

[email protected]I made this parfait for a party and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved the unique flavor combination. I especially liked the crunch of the graham cracker crumbs. It added a nice textural contrast to the other layers.
