Red, White & Blue Ice Cream Parfaits
As we gear up for the one of most exciting weekends of the year I want you to be prepared with all kinds of recipes that you can make in a pinch…
All these Red, White & Blue Ice Cream Parfaits take is a quick dash to the store. You don’t even need to turn on the oven!
You can choose to bake your own pound cake…or purchase one at the store. We all know homemade is best, but sometimes time does not allow for that luxury. You can use any size jars for these. Make small shooters or larger sundaes.
The versatility of this dessert is simple & perfect for summer days when you would way rather be outdoors than in the kitchen!
Enjoy!
