Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 16 ounces strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1/3 cup well-chilled heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
- 1/3 cup plain low-fat Greek-style yogurt
- 14 small amaretti cookies (2 ounces; see headnote)
Preparation
Step 1
Whisk together the lemon juice and honey in a medium bowl. Add the strawberries and toss gently to coat.
Combine the heavy cream, sugar and almond extract in the bowl of a stand mixer or handheld electric mixer; beat for about 2 minutes on high speed until soft peaks form. Use a spatula to gently fold in the yogurt.
Place the cookies in a zip-top bag; seal, pressing as much air out as possible, then use a rolling pin or mallet to crush them to the consistency of large crumbs.
To make the parfaits, dollop 1 tablespoon of the whipped cream mixture into each serving bowl or glass. Top each portion with 2 tablespoons of the cookie crumbs, then a quarter of the dressed, sliced berries. Complete the layering with 1 tablespoon of the whipped cream mixture, then 1 tablespoon of cookie crumbs.
Serve right away.
