Ingredients
For the Blueberry Sauce:
1 ½ cups fresh or frozen blueberries
1 tbsp lemon juice
¼ cup sugar
1 tsp cornstarch + 2 tsp water (optional, for thickening)
For the Parfait:
4 cups vanilla ice cream (softened slightly for swirling)
2 cups blueberry ice cream or blueberry sorbet
Fresh blueberries and blackberries (for topping)
Whipped cream (optional)
Crushed graham crackers or shortbread cookies (optional, for texture)
Instructions
1. Make the Blueberry Sauce
In a saucepan, combine blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice.
Heat on medium until berries burst and sauce thickens slightly (about 7–10 minutes).
For a thicker sauce, stir in cornstarch slurry and simmer 1 more minute.
Let cool completely.
2. Assemble the Parfaits
In a tall glass, layer:
A scoop of vanilla ice cream
A spoonful of blueberry sauce
A scoop of blueberry ice cream or sorbet
Repeat to fill the glass
Use a skewer or spoon to swirl slightly for a marbled look.
3. Top & Serve
Add fresh blueberries or blackberries on top.
Optional: Add whipped cream and a sprinkle of cookie crumbs.
Serve immediately!
✅ Tips:
For a homemade feel, use no-churn vanilla and blueberry ice cream.
Try adding a drizzle of honey or white chocolate sauce for extra indulgence.
