Mason Jar Berry Shortcake Parfait

Have you ever noticed how beautiful everything looks in a mason jar? It’s no different with food, especially with this mason jar berry shortcake parfait. In fact, you can take what is usually a pretty simple dessert, layer it in a mason jar, and voila! They have a cute Pinterest-worthy dessert to serve at any party.

Summer time calls for berries, whipped cream and shortcake. That’s why this dessert is ready for any red, white, and blue occasion you’re headed for. Plus, it’s so simple that you can top it up at the last minute if you need to.

It’s also fun and easy for the kids to help with. Who doesn’t love spraying whipped cream and chopping up graham crackers? The best part is that you don’t have to create anything from scratch if you don’t want to.

ingredients

The ingredients are pretty simple. Aside from mason jars, that’s all you need:

• Chop the strawberries
• Blueberries
• Shortcake
• Whipped cream
• Graham crackers

Directions

1. In your clean mason jar, crumble the shortcake (of your choice) into the bottom quarter of the jar
2. Next, layer the cut strawberries. I like to make nice little bite-sized pieces
3. Put a layer of whipped cream on top of the strawberries
4. Then apply another thinner layer of the crumbled shortcake
5. Add a layer of blueberries
6. Add a final dash of whipped cream, don’t be shy!
7. For the finishing touch, crumble some graham crackers over the whipped cream. This will add a tasty crunch and texture to your berry shortcake parfait.
8. Finally, be prepared to receive plenty of compliments because your dessert will look like it should be in a dessert box in a bakery or coffee shop.
