In a medium mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
In a third bowl, prepare the instant chocolate pudding according to the package instructions by whisking the pudding mix and cold milk until smooth and thickened.
To assemble the parfaits, start by layering about 2 tablespoons of crushed chocolate sandwich cookies into the bottom of each serving glass or jar.
Add a layer of cream cheese mixture (about 2 tablespoons) over the cookies, smoothing it with a spoon.
Next, add a layer of chocolate pudding (about 2 tablespoons), repeating the process until the glasses are filled or you've created at least 2-3 layers of each component.
Finish with a final sprinkle of crushed cookies on top, and optionally garnish with chocolate shavings or sprinkles for extra flair.
Chill the parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld and set.
