"Healthified" Tiramisu Parfaits

"Healthified" Tiramisu Parfaits
Recipe Tip
What is "Healthified"?
We've replaced ingredients with great-tasting alternatives to create better-for-you recipes that are just as yummy as the original.
Substitution
Instead of the ladyfingers, you can use 4 cups angel food cake cubes.
Simplify
Don't want to grate chocolate? A sprinkle of baking cocoa in place of the chocolate on each layer is a nice substitute.
Health Twist
To reduce calories more, use Yoplait® Light Fat Free very vanilla yogurt instead of the Yoplait® Original 99% Fat Free French vanilla yogurt.
