Peach Melba Parfaits

Ingredients
4 cups vanilla low-fat ice cream, softened
1 cup mashed peeled peaches (about 3/4 pound)
1 tablespoon amaretto
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (12-ounce) package unsweetened frozen raspberries, thawed
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon Grand Marnier or other orange-flavored liqueur
1 1/2 cups fresh raspberries
8 peach slices (optional)


Preparation
Combine low-fat ice cream, peaches, amaretto, and vanilla in a freezer-safe container; stir well. Freeze until firm.
Place thawed raspberries, sugar, and liqueur in a blender, and process until smooth. Press the raspberry mixture through a sieve, reserving puree; discard seeds. Cover and chill.

Yield
