Lemon Parfait with Berries

Yummy, creamy lemony summer dessert!

-1 1/2 C heavy cream
-2 11 oz jars lemon curd
-2 1/2 tbls lemon juice
-2 tbls lemon zest
-1-2 C fresh berries: strawberries, raspberries, etc. Whatever you like with lemon.

1. Whip cream with electric mixer on high in ceramic bowl until stiff peaks form--3-5 minutes or so.
2. Place whipped cream in refridgerator to chill. While cream chills, mix together lemon curd, lemon juice, and lemon zest in medium bowl.
3. Fold in whipped cream to lemon curd mixture. Combine. Add berries and stir.
4. Serve within 3 hours. Chill until serving.

***This would also be delicious in a graham cracker crumb crust--no baking; just spoon the parfait into the crust and garnish with berries.

Uh, yeah. Posting drought again.

I made a delish dessert that was shamefully easy. It will be our little secret.

Strawberry Crisp

-4-6 C. strawberries
-1 box yellow cake mix
-1 1/2 stick butter, in 1/2" pieces

1. Wash, drain, and de-top strawberries. Dump in a 9x13 baking dish.
2. Sprinkle with half of the cake mix.
3. Sprinkle half of the butter over the crumb.
4. Sprinkle with the remaining cake mix.
5. Sprinkle with the remaining butter.
6. Bake at 350 - 375 for 60 minutes or so, until golden brown.

That's it!!! Enjoy. I had it with shallot turkey burgers.
