4 steps

Ingredients

  • 2 (10 ounce) packages frozen sliced peaches, thawed
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 (10.75 ounce) loaf prepared pound cake, cubed
  • 1 cup sweetened whipped cream

Directions

  1. 1
    Place peach slices into a large bowl, and sprinkle with brown sugar. Stir to coat, and set aside.
  2. 2
    In a medium metal bowl, stir together the white sugar, flour, lemon zest and salt. Whisk in the lemon juice until the mixture is smooth. Gradually whisk in the boiling water.
  3. 3
    In a smaller bowl, whisk the yolks together. Gradually whisk in about 1/2 cup of the hot lemon mixture. Then whisk the yolk mixture back into the larger bowl. Set the bowl over a pan of simmering water. Cook, stirring frequently until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter. Set aside.
  4. 4
    In each parfait glass, make a layer of pound cake cubes, about 1/2 cup. Top with about 2 tablespoons of lemon sauce, then 1/4 cup of peach slices. Repeat the layers one more time. Top with 1 tablespoon of the lemon sauce. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to be sure it is thoroughly chilled. Top each parfait with a dollop of whipped cream before serving.
