Today’s lemon parfait recipe comes from a cookbook of a good friend of mine. My dear friend Wendy Paul is an amazing woman who has authored a 101 gourmet series of cookbooks. This recipe comes from her 101 Gourmet No-Bake Desserts in a Jar cookbook!

This book would be a perfect Mother’s Day gift or even a teacher appreciation gift. The great thing about this book is they are all treats that don’t require any baking. This also makes them perfect for summer too! All of these desserts can be made it jars, but isn’t necessary. Wendy shares other choices for serving them in her book. Lemon is always right up my alley so I was thrilled when I saw this recipe.

I also love how Wendy gives you options with her recipes in her cookbooks. With these not no-bake desserts you can pick what kind of crust to use and even the topping. However, she does offer recommended crusts and toppings with each recipe, just like with this lemon parfait.
