Easy Creamy Layered Parfait

This recipe is quick, tasty, and perfect for sharing at home.

The Base: 1 pack of plain biscuits (like Maria cookies, Graham crackers, or Digestive biscuits).
The Cream: * 2 cups whole milk.
- 1/2 cup sugar.
- 2 egg yolks.
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch.
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- 1/2 cup heavy cream (optional, for extra richness).

Prepare the Biscuits: Crush the biscuits into small chunks or a coarse sandy texture. Set aside.
Make the Custard: * In a saucepan, whisk together the milk, sugar, egg yolks, and cornstarch until smooth.
- Place over medium heat, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
- Once the mixture thickens into a pudding-like consistency, remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Layering: * Place a spoonful of crushed biscuits at the bottom of each glass.
- Add a layer of the warm vanilla cream.
- Repeat the layers until the glass is nearly full.
Finish: Top with a final sprinkle of biscuit crumbs or a dusting of powdered sugar as seen in your photo.
Chill: Let the glasses sit in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set and allow the biscuits to soften slightly.
