Sweet, tangy Lemon Meringue S’mores Parfaits. Everything you love about s’mores…with the added bonus of lemon and a creamy meringue topping!
Okay….I admit it….I’m obsessed with lemon curd! You might already know this, given my Lemon Shortbread Parfaits, Creamy Lemon Dip, and Lemon Ginger Strawberry Shortcake Cups (among others), but it’s just that it’s SO GOOD!
For those of you who have tried it, I’m sure you will agree…..and for those of you who haven’t tried it, all I can say is it tastes like lemon bars that you can eat by the spoonful. It’s pretty much amazing. And even better when you make homemade lemon curd!
As much as I love it, though, I will say I am careful not to overuse it. The last thing I want is to run the risk of my family (or – gasp – myself) growing tired of it! So I do not add it to everything….although I definitely could!
But when I was dreaming up s’mores recipes, and the idea of lemon meringue s’mores crossed my mind, I couldn’t resist! So I went with it….and it turns out it was the best idea ever! The keys to the magic? The lemon curd, of course, AND the fluffy marshmallow meringue topping! The fact that it’s no-bake and super easy to make doesn’t hurt either….just sayin’!
