Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 10 pieces Chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed
- 1 cup Milk chocolate, finely chopped
- 0.25 cup Roasted peanuts, roughly chopped
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and creamy peanut butter. Beat with a hand mixer until smooth and well combined.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the peanut butter mixture and beat again until fully incorporated. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, pour in the heavy whipping cream and add the sugar. Whip using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
Fold the whipped cream gently into the peanut butter mixture until combined. Be careful not to overmix to retain the fluffiness.
Prepare 6 serving glasses or jars for the parfaits. Start by adding a spoonful of crushed chocolate sandwich cookies to the bottom of each glass.
Add a dollop of the peanut butter cream mixture over the cookie layer, spreading evenly.
Sprinkle a layer of finely chopped milk chocolate over the peanut butter cream layer.
Repeat the layering process (cookies, peanut butter cream, and chocolate) until the glasses are nearly full, finishing with a peanut butter cream layer on top.
Garnish the top of each parfait with a sprinkle of roasted chopped peanuts and a few more crushed cookies or a drizzle of melted chocolate, if desired.
Chill the parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve cold and enjoy!
