Lemon Berry Peach Parfaits Recipes

Steps:

• Place peach slices into a large bowl, and sprinkle with brown sugar. Stir to coat, and set aside.
• In a medium metal bowl, stir together the white sugar, flour, lemon zest and salt. Whisk in the lemon juice until the mixture is smooth. Gradually whisk in the boiling water.
• In a smaller bowl, whisk the yolks together. Gradually whisk in about 1/2 cup of the hot lemon mixture. Then whisk the yolk mixture back into the larger bowl. Set the bowl over a pan of simmering water. Cook, stirring frequently until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter. Set aside.
• In each parfait glass, make a layer of pound cake cubes, about 1/2 cup. Top with about 2 tablespoons of lemon sauce, then 1/4 cup of peach slices. Repeat the layers one more time. Top with 1 tablespoon of the lemon sauce. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to be sure it is thoroughly chilled. Top each parfait with a dollop of whipped cream before serving.

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.

Steps:

• Spoon 1/3 cup yogurt into a 6- to 8-ounce parfait glass or jar. Top yogurt with 1/2 of the peaches, 1/2 of the pine nuts, and 1/2 of the balsamic glaze. Repeat layers with the remaining yogurt, peaches, pine nuts, and balsamic glaze. Top parfait with basil.
