☘️St. Patty's Day Parfaits ☘️

☘️How can something so simple taste so good?

Layered pistachio pudding and cool whip and topped with sprinkles?  Yup!  That's it!  SO easy and yet so prim and proper looking.  

I had made Irish Beef Stew in the Crock-Pot and needed a light and fluffy, fun dessert for the boys to enjoy.  I wasn't in the mood to bake anything and Jell-O takes way too long to set.  So...then the idea of a parfait was born.  I've had these adorable stemless wine glasses in my bar cabinet for a while and have only used them a few times. I thought they would definitely fit the part.  

Here's what I used:

2 am boxes of pistachio pudding mix
4c Milk
1 container of cool whip
Sprinkles for garnish 

Here's what I did:
1. I mixed the pudding and the milk in a bowl and put it in the fridge for 30 mins to set.  
2. When ready, I layered the pudding and the cool whip alternately in the wine glasses.  
3. I topped them off with a dash of rainbow sprinkles and there you have it!  A simple, beautiful, delicious looking little dessert!  
Of course, this idea can be used for any occasion and altered to fit any holiday or flavors you'd like.  Simple enough, right?  What a hit this was with my boys who thought they were extra special for being allowed to eat layered pudding out of the forbidden wine glasses.  I hope everyone enjoyed their St Patrick's Day! ☘️
