Gluten-Free Tropical Lime Mini Parfaits

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup Argo® Corn Starch
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 2-1/2 cups refrigerated, unsweetened, fat free coconut milk*
• 2 tablespoons cream of coconut (such as Coco López®)
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 3/4 cup finely crumbled gluten-free sugar cookies**
• 2 cups diced fresh tropical fruits, such as pineapple, kiwi, mango and strawberries
• Whipped topping (optional)

Directions

Stir together sugar, corn starch and salt in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in coconut milk until smooth. Stirring constantly, bring to a boil. Continue to stir and allow pudding to boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat, stir in cream of coconut, lime juice and vanilla; set aside to cool. (Makes about 2 cups of pudding.) Cool to near room temperature; about 20 to 30 minutes.

To assemble the parfaits, layer 1 tablespoon cookie crumbs, 2-1/2 tablespoons pudding and 2-1/2 tablespoons fruit into each of 12 (3-ounce) mini parfait glasses.

Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Top with whipped topping, if desired.

*Unsweetened rice milk or almond milk can be substituted for the coconut milk.
