Ingredients
- 3.4 ounces instant vanilla pudding mix
- 2 cups cold milk
- 5 drops green food coloring
- 1 cup whipped cream
- 10 cookies chocolate sandwich cookies (e.g., Oreos)
- 2 tablespoons gold sprinkles (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk. Whisk together for 2 minutes until thickened.
Step 2
Add the green food coloring to the pudding and stir until evenly colored. Adjust the number of drops based on the shade of green you prefer.
Step 3
Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a sealable plastic bag and crush them into fine crumbs using a rolling pin or the back of a spoon.
Step 4
In a serving glass or jar, layer the dessert as follows: Start with a spoonful of cookie crumbs at the bottom, followed by a layer of green pudding, and then a dollop of whipped cream. Repeat the layers until the glass is full, ending with whipped cream at the top.
Step 5
Sprinkle some extra cookie crumbs and optional gold sprinkles over the top layer of whipped cream for a festive touch.
Step 6
Chill the parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving, or serve immediately if cold ingredients were used.
