Easy Peanut Butter Parfait Recipe

When it comes to creating desserts for my diet, it really comes down to creativity. This creativity is used in conjunction with a knowledge of foods that the taste buds prefer, as well as the recognition of low sugar and carbohydrates. Most would think that such dessert items do not exist, however they are more common now than ever before. In fact, new versions of popular sweet items are being produced all of the time. This doesnt just pertain to the topic of desserts either. So for this recipe, the ingredients are sugar free – surprise, surprise. This recipe is for a peanut butter parfait that has sugar free ingredients. One aspect that I monitor with regards to desserts like this one is carbohydrates. Often times a recipe calls for a great deal of sugar free items, but the number of carbohydrates are pretty high. That is why I eat them in moderation.




I like to consume diabetic desserts in moderation, that is, in small proportions. To be more specific, just enough tastiness to invigorate the taste buds. This recipe calls for sugar free vanilla ice cream, sugar free chocolate syrup, and some dry roasted peanuts. I make this peanut butter parfait to contain about the volume of a jello cup. That’s a small proportion, but still enough to get my chocolate/ice cream/peanut fix. I add the sugar free ice cream first. After adding a small scoop, I add a thin layer of sugar free chocolate syrup, then some peanuts, then another layer of ice cream, another thin layer of sugar free chocolate syrup, some more peanuts, and then a dab of sugar free whipped topping. That’s a pretty simple easy diabetic dessert that tastes really great. It’s also a great refresher for when my taste buds get bored of bland tasting meals.
