Rainbow Confetti Parfait

Ingredients List

2 cups milk

1/2 cup sugar

3 tablespoons cornstarch

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 tablespoon butter

Assorted food coloring

Whipped cream and rainbow sprinkles for garnish

Colored mini marshmallows for garnish

Makes 4

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, heat milk until bubbles form around the edges. In a bowl, combine sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Pour sugar mixture into hot milk, a little at a time, stirring to dissolve. Continue to cook and stir until mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. Do not boil. Remove from heat, and stir in vanilla and butter. Divide pudding equally into three bowls and tint each portion with a different food coloring.
Color one pink, one green, and one yellow. Divide evenly among parfait glasses, layering each pudding color. Cover and chill at least 2 hours before serving.

Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream and rainbow sprinkles.

You'll find yourself over the rainbow!
