Cherry Almond Parfait Shots is one of the most simple shot-glass desserts to make, and pretty to present. The almond flavor wasn’t especially strong. Next time I would add a few extra drops of almond extract, a few chopped almonds on top, or both. If you prefer a more mild flavor, keep the recipe as-is.
We served these at our recent graduation and confirmation Shot Glass Mini-Servings party.
We filled a gallon Ziploc bag with the pudding, let it set for about 30 minutes, then snipped a corner and piped it into the shot glasses.

- Prepare the pudding according to the directions on the box. Let the pudding thicken just slightly in the refrigerator. In a separate bowl, combine the cherry pie filling and the almond extract.
