Ingredients

• 3 medium, peeled and sliced ripe peaches
• 8 oz mascarpone cheese
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 3 tbsp honey
• 1/2 cup crushed graham crackers

Instructions

1. Step 1: In a mixing bowl, whip 8 oz mascarpone cheese with 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, and 1 tsp vanilla extract using an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes.
2. Step 2: Gently fold in 3 medium peeled and sliced ripe peaches to the mascarpone mixture, combining evenly without breaking the fruit.
3. Step 3: In four serving glasses, layer 2 tbsp crushed graham crackers at the bottom, followed by 1/4 cup of the peach mascarpone cream, then drizzle 1 tbsp honey over the layer.
4. Step 4: Repeat the layers once more in each glass, finishing with a honey drizzle on top.
5. Step 5: Chill the parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld and the cream to set.
