Instructions

Place peach slices in a large bowl; sprinkle with brown sugar and stir to coat. Set aside.

Stir white sugar, flour, lemon zest, and salt together in a metal bowl; whisk in lemon juice until smooth. Gradually whisk in boiling water.

Whisk egg yolks together in a small bowl; gradually whisk in about ½ cup hot lemon mixture to temper. Whisk yolk mixture into lemon mixture. Set the bowl over a pan of simmering water. Cook, stirring frequently, until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. Off heat, whisk in butter; set aside.

Place 1 layer pound cake cubes (about ½ cup each) into each parfait glass; top with about 2 tablespoons lemon sauce then ¼ cup peach slices. Repeat layers once more. Top each with 1 tablespoon lemon sauce. Chill in the refrigerator, at least 1 hour. Dollops parfaits with whipped cream before serving.
