Description
A quick and easy 3-ingredient dessert featuring layers of velvety chocolate pudding, fluffy whipped cream, and crunchy cookie crumbles. Perfect for any occasion or a midweek sweet craving.
Ingredients
Scale
- Chocolate pudding (store-bought instant pudding mix or homemade)
- 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons (25 g) powdered sugar
- Cookie crumbles (e.g., Oreo crumbs, graham crackers, or gluten-free cookies)
Instructions
- Prepare the pudding: If using instant pudding mix, follow the package instructions and chill for at least 15 minutes. If making from scratch, allow it to cool completely.
- Whip the cream: In a mixing bowl, beat heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Adjust sweetness if needed.
- Crush the cookies: Place cookies in a resealable bag and crush them with a rolling pin into small, crumbly pieces.
- Layer the parfaits: Start with a layer of cookie crumbles at the bottom of each glass. Add a layer of chocolate pudding, followed by whipped cream. Repeat until the glass is full, finishing with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cookie crumbs.
- Chill and serve: Refrigerate the parfaits for 30 minutes to set the layers. Serve cold and enjoy!
Notes
Use chilled ingredients for better layering. Customize with fresh fruit, nuts, or chocolate chips for added texture. Avoid over-whipping the cream to maintain a smooth texture.
