Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (15 ounce) can canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie puree)
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream or whole milk
  • 4 ounces sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded and divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 3 (5.3 ounce) containers siggi’s Pumpkin & Spice yogurt
  • Roasted pumpkin seeds, optional

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, add pumpkin, butter and cream or milk. Heat over medium heat and stir. Heat until warm.
  2. Add in 3 ounces cheese and mix until melted. Mix in salt and pepper and remove from heat. Cool slightly.
  3. Using eight (4-5 ounces) glasses, make parfaits by layering one tablespoon pumpkin puree, one tablespoon siggi’s yogurt, one tablespoon puree, one tablespoon yogurt and ending with one final tablespoon of puree. Repeat with remaining glasses. Top each parfait with remaining cheese and a few roasted pumpkin seeds, if desired.
