Ingredients:
Angel Food Cake (1 store-bought or homemade)
Greek Yogurt (4 individual cups or about 32 oz. of your favorite fruit-flavored yogurt, like strawberry, blueberry, or peach. I use the Light + Fit Nonfat Gluten-Free Strawberry Greek Yogurt!)
Fat-Free Cool Whip (1 container)
Fresh Berries (Choose your favorites – strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, or a mixed berry blend!)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Cool Whip Mixture:
In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 large container of fat-free Cool Whip and 4 individual cups of Greek yogurt (or about 32 oz. of yogurt). You can use fruit-flavored Greek yogurt like strawberry, blueberry, or peach to complement the berries.
Mix the Cool Whip and yogurt together until smooth and well combined. If you'd like a sweeter mix, add a drizzle of honey or a pinch of Stevia to taste.
2. Layer the Parfait:
First Layer: Break half of the angel food cake into pieces and layer it at the bottom of a 9x13 casserole dish.
Second Layer: Spread half of the Cool Whip and yogurt mixture over the cake pieces, smoothing it out evenly.
Third Layer: Add a generous layer of fresh berries on top of the yogurt mixture.
Repeat Layers:
Second Layer: Add the remaining pieces of angel food cake on top of the berries.
Third Layer: Spread the remaining Cool Whip and yogurt mixture over the second cake layer.
Final Layer: Top with the remaining fresh berries for a beautiful, colorful finish.
3. Chill and Serve:
Refrigerate the Fruity Cloud Parfait for at least 2-3 hours (or overnight) to allow the flavors to blend and the dessert to set properly.
4. Enjoy!:
Once chilled, serve your Fruity Cloud Parfait chilled. It’s the perfect balance of sweet, creamy, and fruity, with a light, fluffy texture everyone will love!
