Sour Cream Parfait

Parfait translates to 'perfect' in french. This parfait is derived from the American version of a parfait. It makes a great breakfast, dessert or even a snack. The sour cream yoghurt is creamy, silky and rich. My choice of fruit was berries, but the best if you can choose your favourites and it'll still taste delicious. The crunch of granola takes you home. This jar is pure joy to devour, and it hardly takes time to put together!
