Mini Lemon Parfaits

It's cold here.  There's snow on the ground and it's been pretty gloomy for about the last week.  I wanted a little sunshine and since I wasn't getting any from the sky, I figured lemons were the next closest thing.

These Mini Lemon Parfaits are so stinking cute!  And they're equally as tasty.  If you are a lemon fan, you'll want to make these.  Like now.

1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 cup lemon curd (I used Microwave Lemon Curd)
1 cup sweetened whipped cream

Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar and melted butter in a small bowl; mix until well combined.  Place about 1 teaspoon of the graham cracker mixture in the the bottom of 4 mini parfait glasses.  Top with 1 tablespoon lemon curd, then 1 tablespoon sweetened whipped cream (I piped my sweetened whipped cream in - much neater that way. :)).  Add another layer of the lemon curd and sweetened whipped cream, then sprinkle with graham cracker mixture.
