Ambrosia Whipped Yogurt Fruit Parfaits
Ingredients
- 1 cup chopped pineapple
- 1 cup mandarin oranges drained from any juice or syrup
- 1/2 cup maraschino cherries plus a few with stems on for topping
- 1/2 cup shredded sweetened coconut
- 1/4 cup flaked unsweetened coconut
- 1/3 cup mini marshmallows
- whipped yogurt cream
- 1 1/4 cups cold heavy cream
- 3/4 cups vanilla or plain Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a bowl, stir together the pineapple, oranges and cherries. Toss in half of the sweetened coconut and stir.
- To make the yogurt whipped cream, add the cold heavy cream to the bowl of your electric mixer. Using the whisk attachment, beat it on high speed until stiff peaks form and you have whipped cream. Add in the yogurt and vanilla extract, and beat on medium speed, scraping down the sides if needed, until combined. Stir in the rest of the shredded coconut and the flaked coconut.
- Layer the yogurt cream, the marshmallows and fruit mixture into four small jars or glasses. I like to do two or three alternating layers. Top it off with a cherry and an extra sprinkle of coconut if desired.
