Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 box (3.9 oz) Chocolate pudding mix
- 2 cups Milk
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 12 pieces Chocolate sandwich cookies
- 0.25 cup Shaved chocolate (optional)
- 0.25 cup Peanuts, chopped (optional)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, prepare the chocolate pudding by whisking the chocolate pudding mix with 2 cups of cold milk as per the package instructions. Set aside and let it thicken.
In another bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream with a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form.
In a separate large bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar until smooth. Add the whipped cream and vanilla extract, gently folding it into the peanut butter mixture until fully combined and fluffy.
Crush the chocolate sandwich cookies into coarse crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a resealable bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
In serving glasses or jars, layer the ingredients in the following order: start with a layer of crushed cookies, followed by a layer of chocolate pudding, and then a layer of the peanut butter mousse. Repeat the layers until the glass is almost full, finishing with a layer of peanut butter mousse on top.
Optional: Garnish with shaved chocolate and chopped peanuts for extra texture and flavor.
Refrigerate the parfaits for at least 30 minutes to allow the layers to set and the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
