| As with most families, anything with peanut butter will usually get rave reviews. This is a simple dessert you can make in the morning and put away in the freezer until needed. The only requirement is that if you freeze it for longer than four hours, it needs to sit out for 15-20 minutes before serving. Peanut Butter Parfait Freeze 8 ounces of cream cheese, softened to room temperature 1 cup confectioner's or powdered sugar 1/2 cup peanut butter, creamy is best 1/2 cup milk 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 teaspoon orange extract Pinch cinnamon 1 1/2 cups of heavy cream, whipped Can of whipped cream Salted peanuts, roughly chopped Chocolate sprinkles, colorful candy-coated chocolate candy . . . be imaginative! Beat the cream cheese until smooth and fluffy. Gradually add in the sugar and beat until well combined. Blend in the peanut butter. Stir in the milk, extracts, cinnamon. Fold in your stiffly beaten whipping cream. Divide your mixture into 4-6 pretty cups, small bowls, etc., your choice. Freeze for about 3 hours. When serving, top with a generous spritz of the whipped cream and sprinkle with the peanuts or toppings of your choice. You could even drizzle a bit of chocolate syrup on them. My kind of dessert - no oven involved! |
