(#5580338) Contest Entry (Feb. 2024) Poor Man's Parfait

Posted by Mignon on 18 Feb 2024 at 6:57AM
My mother made this inexpensive dessert when we 

were growing up and struggling to make ends meet. 

She called it the "Poor Man's Parfait".



Ingredients: 

2 - boxes of Raspberry Jello 

1 - 16 oz. can of crushed pineapple (drained) 

1 - 16 oz. carton of heavy whipping cream 



Prepare jello as directed and allow to set.

When jello has set, stir jello well with large spoon.

Add the drained crushed pineapple. 

In a separate bowl beat the heavy whipping cream. 

When fully whipped, combine whipped cream, jello 

and crushed pineapple mixture in a large bowl. 

Mix well and chill before serving in sundae glasses. 



This looks messy but tastes divine! 

The REAL whipped cream is why this tastes SO GOOD!
