How to Make Peach And Blueberry Parfaits

  1. In a small, non-aluminum saucepan, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup cornstarch, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 2 large eggs.
  2. Gradually whisk in 2 cups whole milk and 1 cup heavy cream.
  3. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, for 15-20 minutes, or until the custard has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
  5. Pour the custard into a small bowl, cover directly with plastic wrap (pressing it onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming), and chill for at least 2 hours.
  6. Layer approximately 1/2 cup chopped peaches, 1/4 cup blueberries, and 1/4 cup crumbled cake in each mason jar or tall glass. Repeat layers as desired.
  7. Drizzle 1/4 cup of the chilled custard over each parfait.
  8. Garnish with fresh mint sprigs before serving.
