Strawberry Parfaits
These creamy and smooth strawberry parfaits taste as good as they look. Top with whipped cream and sliced almonds for a real treat.

Like the other reviewer, the texture of the ricotta mixture was the biggest problem. My husband didn't like it much when I followed the recipe. For the second try, I used a cream cheese and powdered sugar blend, without the ricotta, and while it was thicker, he liked the flavor better. Also, it's quite important to repeat the layer of cookies. Graham crackers also work well. It might also be nice to drizzle melted chocolate over the strawberries on each layer, to add more depth of flavor!
I made this recipe as written and did not like the texture of the cream mixture. The ricotta makes it too grainy. Replace the ricotta with yogurt and you have a hit! I also used granulated sugar instead of powdered... I thought the powdered sugar gave it a funny flavor. With the changes to the recipe... my family loved it!
Great, light recipe. Always a crowd favorite and so easy to make!
