Ingredients
Scale
- Chocolate Mousse:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Oreo Layer:
- 1 package (15.35 oz) Oreo cookies, crushed
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- Whipped Topping:
- 1 cup whipped topping (store-bought or homemade)
Instructions
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals until smooth, stirring in between.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and sugar until soft peaks form, then gently fold in the melted chocolate and vanilla extract until fully combined.
- In another bowl, mix the crushed Oreo cookies with melted butter until evenly coated.
- In serving cups, layer the chocolate mousse, followed by a layer of the Oreo mixture, and then a layer of whipped topping. Repeat the layers until the cups are filled, finishing with whipped topping on top.
- Chill the parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
