Peanut Butter Parfaits
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 10 min. + cooling
YIELD: 2 servings.
NOW THAT our nest holds only two of us, I've had to develop many dishes for two.
My husband and I love this dessert, and it also makes an elegant finish to a meal when company comes. You'll hear lots of "oohs" and "aahs"!
