Strawberry Almond Parfait

Every year when strawberries are in season, I make this layered confection.  The combination of almond and strawberries makes this dish refreshing and delicious!

Italian Parfait

1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix

2 c. milk

¼  tsp almond extract

2 pints strawberries, stemmed and sliced

2 tbsp sugar

1 ½ c crushed vanilla wafers

In a medium bowl, prepare the pudding mix with milk as package directs.  Mix in the almond extract; cover and refrigerate.  Sweeten strawberries with sugar; spoon about 3 tbsp sweetened berries into each of six stemmed glasses.  Layer each with 3 tbsp cookie crumbs and 1/3 c pudding.  Top each glass with remaining strawberries and crumbs diving equally.  Makes 4 servings.
