These pretty parfaits are perfect for weekend guests as well as for the family during the week. I sometimes add banana slices for more tropical flavor.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
dash salt
1 cup milk
4 egg yolks, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon orange extract
1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped
fresh orange sections
1/4 cup flaked coconut, toasted
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, combine the sugar, flour and salt. Gradually add the milk; stir until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat. Stir a small amount of hot filling into egg yolks; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes. Remove from the heat; cool slightly. Stir in extracts.
2. In four individual dessert glasses or bowls, layer the custard, whipped cream, orange sections and coconut. Refrigerate until serving. Yield: 4 servings.
