Grilled peaches and a mascarpone cheese mixture give this parfait a cheesecake-like flavor that’s a perfect light summer dessert.
In a small bowl combine mascarpone cheese, yogurt, vanilla and lemon zest. Cover and refrigerate.
Heat grill to medium high and oil grates with a bit of butter. Slice the peaches in half and remove the pits. Brush the cut side of the peaches with melted butter. Grill the peach halves for about 3 minutes, with the cut-side down, until there are some nice grill marks on the bottom of the peaches. Remove from the grill and let cool.
Put the Amaretti in a Ziplock bag, seal the bag and roll over it with a rolling pin to crumble. Cut the peaches into bite-size pieces.
Assemble 8 parfaits by layering the ingredients in individual 8-ounce mason jars as follows: Put peach pieces from 1/2 of a peach in the bottom of each mason jar. Follow with a tablespoon of the mascarpone and yogurt mixture and a teaspoon of the Amaretti crumble. Repeat with a second layer. Cover the jars with lids and refrigerate until ready to serve. Remove lids before serving and garnish with a sprig of mint.

Thank you for your review and comment Cheryl. I am glad you enjoyed the peach parfaits. I think they would be really good with plums too. Kim
