Ingredients
- 2 cups chocolate pudding (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 pieces chocolate sandwich cookies (e.g., Oreo)
- 4 pieces peanut butter cups (chopped, optional for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form (about 3-4 minutes). Reserve 1/3 cup of whipped cream for topping, if desired.
Step 2
2. Gently fold the peanut butter and vanilla extract into the remaining whipped cream until fully combined, creating a smooth peanut butter mousse.
Step 3
3. Crush the chocolate sandwich cookies into coarse crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed plastic bag and rolling with a rolling pin.
Step 4
4. Assemble the parfaits by layering 2 tablespoons of crushed cookies at the bottom of each serving glass or jar.
Step 5
5. Spoon or pipe 1/4 cup of chocolate pudding on top of the cookie layer, followed by 1/4 cup of the peanut butter mousse.
Step 6
6. Repeat the layers (crushed cookies, chocolate pudding, and peanut butter mousse) until the glass is filled, ending with a mousse layer.
Step 7
7. Garnish each parfait with a sprinkle of crushed cookies, a dollop of reserved whipped cream, and chopped peanut butter cups, if using.
Step 8
8. Refrigerate the parfaits for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
