National Bakewell Tart Day, observed every year on August 11th, honors the traditional English dessert known as the Bakewell tart. This delectable treat features a shortcrust pastry base filled with layers of jam, frangipane, and topped with chopped almonds and icing. The Bakewell tart has a history dating back to the 19th century, originating from the town of Bakewell in Derbyshire, England. Its combination of sweet jam, nutty frangipane, and rich, buttery pastry highlights the UK’s proud culinary tradition.

Ingredients:

4 Twinkies
1/2 cup almond meal (ground almonds)
1/2 cup raspberry jam
1 cup vanilla yogurt
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup slivered almonds (for garnish)
Fresh raspberries (for garnish, optional)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Almond Mixture: In a bowl, combine the almond meal with 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar. This will enhance the nutty flavor reminiscent of a traditional Bakewell tart.

2. Slice the Twinkies: Cut each Twinkie into 1-inch chunks. These will form the base layers of your parfait.

3. Layer the Parfait: In your serving glasses or bowls, start with a layer of Twinkie pieces. Follow with a layer of raspberry jam spread evenly over the Twinkies.

4. Add the Yogurt: Top the jam layer with a generous spoonful of vanilla yogurt.

5. Sprinkle the Almond Mixture: Sprinkle the almond mixture over the yogurt layer. Repeat the layers—Twinkies, raspberry jam, yogurt, and almond mixture—until your glasses are filled.

6. Finish with Garnish: Garnish the top with slivered almonds and a light dusting of powdered sugar. Add fresh raspberries for an extra touch of color and flavor.

7. Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the parfaits for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld. Serve chilled and enjoy the delightful combination of Twinkie and Bakewell tart in every spoonful.

Tips:

For an extra indulgent touch, drizzle some raspberry sauce over the top before serving.
If you’re a fan of cherries, swap the raspberry jam for cherry preserves to create a cherry Bakewell-inspired parfait.
