The almond parfait is a fresh and fragrant dessert, ideal to serve at the end of a meal during a summer dinner with friends or as a snack during a sweet break in the afternoon. A delicate almond-flavoured cream is cooked on the stove as if it were an English sauce, then poured into a plum cake mould and left to harden for a few hours in the freezer. Once cooked, you will discover a crunchy base of biscuits and chopped almonds, which will seduce you with the contrast of the different consistencies. It can also be prepared in advance, kept for a few days in the freezer and taken out just before serving: just enough time for it to melt slightly and become irresistible. Find out how to make it by following our step-by-step recipe.
