Here is a great recipe to make for that special someone for Valentine's Day. These parfaits are heavenly....and they are low fat and low sugar too!! They look so pretty made up too.
I had a hard time finding lady fingers, but finally found them at Publix...I couldn't find them at Walmart or Target, so just keep looking!
Enjoy!
