Last-Minute Mascarpone Parfaits

Mascarpone cheese is so vesrsatile it can be used in soups for creamy thickness, in custard batter for quiches and tarts, and most especially in desserts such as spicy tirimisu as well as last-minute parfaits layered like a tirimisu.

 I like the taste of these parfaits better after a couple of hours in the fridge but they can also be eaten right-away if you can't wait! Just make sure you have some mascarpone cheese stored in your fridge at all times along with some lemons (also very versatile for cooking and cleaning).
