I found a recipe for lime parfaits online. This recipe has gotten me a lot of praise. I was racking my brain for a Thanksgiving dessert and tried several different ways to create a variation of the lime parfait. I tried pomegranate and cranberry juice first, both 100%. They were too wet. So, I had a light in my head go off and thought I should try cranberry sauce instead. It worked so well! I even added it to the real whipped cream I whipped up and it was delicious.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 0.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1 can low-fat sweetened condensed milk , 14 ounce
- 0.5 cups cranberry sauce
- 1 cup cold whipping cream
Instructions
-
1
Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the sugar and cook until bubbling, about 1 minute. Add the graham cracker crumbs; stir until the color deepens, about 3 minutes. Turn out onto a plate to cool.

Combine the condensed milk and cranberry sauce in a mixing bowl, blend together with a hand mixer until the mixture thickens. Place the whipping cream in a separate bowl and beat with an electric mixer until firm peaks form; fold into the cranberry mixture.

Layer 1/4 cup of the cranberry mixture into each of six (8 ounce) wine goblets or glasses; top each with 1 tablespoon of the crumbs. Repeat layering. Refrigerate at least 1 hour, up to 4 hours.

Raspberry Balsamic Vinaigrette Dressing
This raspberry balsamic dressing tastes fantastic on a salad with fruit (apples are my favorite) or even as a bread dip! I was tired of trying bottle after bottle of dressing and not finding anything close to my favorite restaurant-inspired salad until I made this recipe.

Copycat Chick-fil-A Mac and Cheese
This Copycat Chick-fil-A Mac and Cheese is made with 5 types of cheese, selected for their melting properties. I love macaroni and cheese, and am continually experimenting with different cheese types, because each cheese has a unique flavor profile and different melting properties.
