This retro-inspired, but modernly-flavored dessert is best made at least 30 minutes before serving, allowing time for the gingersnap crumble to soften slightly.
Ingredients
* 4 items Murray Sugar free gingersnaps * 12 oz fat-free cherry vanilla yogurt, or black cherry yogurt * 2/3 cup fat-free whipped topping * 2 medium kiwifruit, peeled and chopped * 1/3 cup pecan halves, from Georgia, toasted if desired
Instructions
* Put gingersnaps in a medium size re-sealable plastic bag and seal bag. With a rolling pin or large heavy spoon, gently crumble cookies. (The mixture should be somewhat coarse, not finely ground.) Set aside.
* Spoon yogurt into a small bowl. Add whipped topping and gently fold in to blend. Do not over mix.
* To assemble in individual 6-ounce glass serving pieces, spoon about 2 tablespoons of crushed gingersnaps into bottom of each glass. Top each with 1/4 cup of yogurt mixture. Divide kiwi evenly among glasses and top each with about another 1/4 cup of yogurt mixture. Coarsely chop pecan halves and sprinkle on top for garnish.
* Refrigerate parfaits at least 30 minutes or up to two hours. Serve chilled. Yields 1 parfait per serving.
