Key Lime Pie Mini Parfaits

Enjoy a taste of the tropics! These parfaits feature sweetened, velvety mascarpone cheese laced with the juice and zest of fresh Key limes.

Yield: 8 servings

Preparation Time: and Active TIme: 35 min

Ingredients

1 container (8 ounces) Belgioioso Mascarpone cheese

1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk

1/3 cup lime juice (about 4 medium limes, juiced)

1 1/2 teaspoons lime zest

1 drop green food color, optional

3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs

2 tablespoons sugar

2 tablespoons butter, cubed and melted

sweetened whipped cream

lime wedges

Directions:

Beat the mascarpone, sweetened condensed milk and lime juice in a bowl until smooth. Transfer half of the mixture to a pastry bag; set aside. Beat lime zest and green food coloring, if desired, into remaining mascarpone mixture until blended. Spoon into another pastry bag.

Combine graham cracker crumbs and sugar in a small bowl; stir in butter. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon crumb mixture in each 3-ounce glass.

Layer each with 1 tablespoon white mascarpone mixture and 1 tablespoon green mascarpone mixture. Repeat layers, starting with the crumb mixture.

Top with whipped cream. Sprinkle with remaining crumb mixture. Garnish with lime wedges. Refrigerate until serving.

Recipe Tip:
Fresh limes can be substituted for Key limes in the recipe. Four medium limes juiced yields about 1/3 cup lime juice.

Cheesemonger Tip:
Mascarpone cheese is rich, creamy, buttery and slightly sweet. It mingles well within both dessert and dinner menus.

Please note that some ingredients and brands may not be available in every store.
