Makes 6 servings

Ingredients
½ cup graham-cracker crumbs
2 tablespoons granulated no-calorie sweetener* or 3 packets
1½ tablespoons light butter
4 ounces tub-style light cream cheese
4 ounces nonfat cream cheese, room temperature
½ cup light sour cream
¼ cup granulated no-calorie sweetener* or 6 packets
1 cup light whipped topping, thawed
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries

*recipe developed with Splenda granulated no-calorie sweetener

Instructions

1. Select 6 tall, stemmed glasses. (An 8-ounce wineglass or champagne glass is ideal.)

2. In a small bowl, mix graham-cracker crumbs, 2 tablespoons sweetener, and butter. Set aside.

3. In a medium mixing bowl, beat cream cheeses with an electric mixer until creamy. Add sour cream and 1/4 cup sweetener and stir until smooth. Fold in light whipped topping with a spoon or spatula.

4. In the bottom of each glass, place 1 tablespoon graham cracker mix. Press down with spoon. Place about 3 tablespoons of cream cheese mix on top of each. (You will use only 1/2 of the cheese mixture for the 6 glasses). Divide the berries among the glasses, placing them on top of the cream cheese layer. Add one more layer of cream cheese. Finish the parfait by topping each with 1 tablespoon of crumbs.

5. Enjoy immediately or place in the refrigerator until ready to be served.
