Add a layer of raspberry
Add another layer of cream cheese
Next, add another layer of jam
Add the top layer of cream cheese mixture
Garnish the top with raspberries and mint
For the lower-carb options, leave out the raspberry jam.
Another tip is to use only half of a graham cracker or omit it altogether, making the parfait lower carb.
Since each jar is a single serving, you can fill them according to individual tastes and dietary requirements.
