Tropical Banana Nut Parfaits

Tips

*To toast coconut, sprinkle in ungreased heavy skillet. Cook over medium-low heat 6 to 14 minutes, stirring frequently until browning begins, then stirring constantly until golden brown.

Substitution

No parfait glasses? Wine glasses or slim drinking glasses work just as well.
