Serves: 15

Serving Size: 1/3 cup parfait and 1/4 cup berries

Ingredients:

  • 1 14 oz. can fat-free sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 8 oz. package fat-free cream cheese
  • 1/3 cup bottled lemon or lime juice
  • 2 cups fat-free Cool Whip, defrosted
  • 1/3 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 pints fresh blueberries (or frozen berries, defrosted)


Directions:

  1. Place milk, cream cheese and juice in a food processor that has been fitted with a metal blade. Process until smooth.
  2. Pour mixture into a medium mixing bowl and gently whip in Cool Whip.
  3. Spoon mixture into parfait glasses layering with blueberries and 1 Tbsp. graham cracker crumbs.

Note:
Try substituting light cherry pie filling for blueberries. Perhaps add one tsp. of lemon or lime rind to cream cheese mixture. Another idea is to add 1/2 cup blueberries to the mixture of condensed milk, cream cheese and juice while in the food processor.
