This easy dessert recipe is just as good the next day, in fact, its the perfect make-ahead treat for the holiday season! Simply store the different ingredients in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Then you can quickly layer them into your glass containers before the party or event.
I love that you only need a few simple ingredients from the grocery store to make this. Nothing too fancy here, that’s for sure!
If you can’t find micro mini eggs at the store, regular mini eggs work just as well! Simply chop them up before adding to the parfait.
Variations to try:
- Use vanilla or banana pudding to create a different flavor profile.
- Add your favorite fruit! Raspberries, sliced bananas or even mango would be a nice change.
- You could also add layers of chocolate cake or Oreo cookie crumble!
- Top with sprinkles or maraschino cherries.
