Ingredients

Parfaits

1 jar (10 oz) maraschino cherries, drained
1 pint (2 cups) whipping cream, chilled
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 tablespoon rum extract
2 teaspoons vanilla
12 jelly jars or drinking glasses (8 oz each)
3 cups Cinnamon Toast Crunch™ cereal

Steps

1

Reserve 12 whole cherries for garnish. Chop remaining cherries; set aside.
2

In medium bowl, beat whipping cream with electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form.
3

In large bowl, stir together condensed milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, rum extract and vanilla. Fold in whipped cream until combined.
4

To make each parfait in jelly jar or glass, layer about 1 tablespoon cereal, about 1/4 cup cream mixture, some of the chopped cherries, another tablespoon cereal and a layer of cream mixture. Sprinkle top with cereal; top with 1 reserved whole cherry.
5

Cover; freeze at least 5 to 6 hours before serving.

Before serving, allow the desserts to sit out for a minute or two so it won’t be too firm.
The ice cream parfait can also be made in a large plastic container or layered in a 9x5-inch loaf pan instead of the individual cups.
