instructions

Make the oat cookie crumble

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the sugar, oats, flour and salt.
  • Add the unsalted butter, using your fingers to combine it all together until incorporated enough that it forms clumps.
  • Using your fingers, place the oat mixture clumps onto the parchment paper, spreading out evenly.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes until toasty and browned. Let cool completely before using.

Make the whipped mascarpone

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer with the beater attachment, whip the mascarpone, icing sugar and lemon zest on high to give it some volume.
  • Turn off the mixer; swap out to the whisk attachment.
  • Scrape down the sides of the bowl; add the cold whipping cream and beat on low until incorporated, about 30 seconds.
  • Beat on medium-high until soft peaks form.

Assemble the parfait

  • Using a spoon, dollop a generous amount of whipped mascarpone into the bottom of your bowl or glass.
  • Add a layer of lemon curd.
  • Add another layer of mascarpone.
  • Add a generous crumbly amount of cooled oat cookie crumble, broken into small pieces.
  • Add another dollop of mascarpone.
  • Add a spoonful of blackberry jam and top with fresh blackberries!
