Raise your hand if you love ice cream cakes! I do too…which is why I know you will love this ice cream parfait in a cup! These parfaits have all the yumminess of an ice cream cake combined with all of the cuteness of an individual treat…they are pretty much perfection! Because you are making them individual sizes you can also have more flavor options.
Not only do they taste great, but how cute are they?! (I love the little spoon tied to it!)
