Ingredients

  • 2 cups crushed chocolate sandwich cookies
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 16 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce
  • chocolate sandwich cookies for garnish whole or halved

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, combine the 2 cups of crushed chocolate sandwich cookies with the melted unsalted butter. Stir until the crumbs are fully coated and resemble wet sand. This mixture will serve as the crunchy base for your parfaits.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to mix until fully incorporated.
  • In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream to stiff peaks using an electric mixer. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, stirring carefully to maintain the airy texture.
  • Start by spooning a layer of the cookie crust mixture into the bottom of each parfait glass. Next, add a generous layer of the cheesecake filling, followed by a drizzle of caramel sauce. Repeat the layers once more, ending with a topping of cookie crumbs and a final drizzle of caramel.
  • Top each parfait with a whole or halved chocolate sandwich cookie for an extra touch of decoration. Cover the parfaits with plastic wrap or lids and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the filling to set.
