Peach & Raspberry Parfaits

2 medium sized peaches, rinsed and pitted
1 container raspberries, rinsed and dried
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 envelope dry whipped topping mix (Dream Whip)
1/2 cup milk
1 6 oz container vanilla yogurt
8 shortbread cookies (Lorna Doone) (I used more than 8)

Cut peaches in small (bitesize) pieces. Gently stir peaches, raspberries, sugar and vanilla together. Let stand for 5 minutes. In large bowl, combined whipped topping mix and milk. Beat on low speed for 1 minute, then increase speed to high for 4 minutes, or until fluffy and stiff. Fold 1 1/2 cups of whipped topping into yogurt in a small bowl (reserve remaining whipped topping) Begin layering; place a layer of fruit in the bottom of container. Top with a layer of yogurt mixture. Next a layer of crumbled cookies. Repeat layering, ending with cookies. Garnish with reserved whipped topping and mint sprigs (if desired). Enjoy!
