Ingredients

• 2 cups Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
• 1 cup Crushed chocolate cookies (like Oreos, with filling removed)
• 0.5 cup Granola
• 0.5 cup Berries (e.g., strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries)
• 2 tablespoons Honey or maple syrup
• 5 whole Mint leaves or edible flowers for garnish
• 4 pieces Small flowerpot-shaped containers or ramekins

Directions

Step 1

Prepare your small flowerpot-shaped containers or ramekins by ensuring they are clean and dry.

Step 2

Take the Greek yogurt and stir in the honey or maple syrup for a touch of sweetness. Set aside.

Step 3

To create the 'soil,' crush the chocolate cookies finely into crumbs. You can use a food processor or crush them manually in a resealable plastic bag using a rolling pin.

Step 4

Begin assembling the parfait layers. Start by adding 2 tablespoons of granola to the bottom of each container as the base.

Step 5

Next, spoon a generous layer of sweetened Greek yogurt over the granola, filling up about half the container.

Step 6

Sprinkle a layer of berries over the yogurt for a burst of color and flavor.

Step 7

Add another layer of Greek yogurt on top of the berries, leaving about a half-inch of space at the top of the container.

Step 8

Cover the top layer of yogurt with crushed cookie crumbs to resemble the 'soil' in the flowerpot.

Step 9

Gently press a mint leaf or an edible flower into the center of the cookie crumbs to create the appearance of a potted plant.

Step 10

Chill in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve cold and enjoy your edible flowerpot parfait!
