- 220 g chocolate cookies
- 60 g butter
- 250 g cream cheese
- 60 g powdered sugar
- 5 ml vanilla extract
- 250 ml whipping cream
- 120 g dark chocolate
- 40 g chocolate shavings
Crush chocolate cookies into coarse crumbs, then mix part of them with melted butter until evenly moistened, reserving the remaining crumbs for the later layers.
Beat cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth, then fold in whipped cream gently so the mixture stays airy, light, and pleasantly creamy.
Melt dark chocolate carefully and cool it slightly, then stir it into half of the cream mixture to create a rich chocolate filling for layering.
Spoon a layer of buttery cookie crumbs into each glass, pressing very lightly so the base remains crumbly rather than becoming dense or overly compact.
Add a layer of chocolate cream, followed by plain vanilla cream, then sprinkle additional cookie crumbs before repeating the layers until each glass is filled.
Refrigerate the parfaits for at least one hour, allowing the creams to firm slightly while the cookie crumbs soften just enough between the creamy layers.
Finish each parfait with chocolate shavings, extra cookie crumbs, or small cookie pieces, then serve well chilled with a spoon reaching through every delicious layer.
