STRAWBERRY MOUSSE CHEESECAKE PARFAITS
With all these fun life changes going on, I decided we needed a special little treat to celebrate. Yes, I know. We have an entire pantry stuffed to the gills with cookies, candies, sprinkles, and who knows what other sweet things, but that has never stopped me before. Making more desserts is just who I am.
I love finding fun ways to include more dairy in the recipes I create. Working with ADA Mideast for the past few years has helped me be more aware of how much dairy and protein my kids are getting. Thank goodness all three of them love to guzzle big glasses of milk on a daily basis. And you should see how much milk our youngest drowns his cereal in. They are definitely getting their 9 essential nutrients each day.
I had so much fun making these little no bake peanut butter fudge cheesecake parfaits last fall that I decided to make another easy treat. Washing and saving those little plastic cups was a great idea. I have a feeling they are going to come in handy again and again. Or until one of our kids decides to break them or throw them away.
Most of the time when I make parfaits, I do multiple layers of cookie crumbs. But not this time. I decided to do thick layers of pink and red for our celebration dessert because it just looks pretty that way. Adding little cookies on top was the perfect way to get more cookie goodness in these strawberry mousse cheesecake parfaits.
