👩🍳Recipe Notes
This recipe calls for crushed Oreo cookies. There are a few ways you can do that. The easiest way to crush cookies is to use a food processor.
However, if you don't have one, here's a few easy tips for crushing cookies into crumbs for any recipe:
- Place half the amount of cookies in a plastic storage bag.
- Remove the air from the bag and make sure it's completely closed. You don't want the crumbs to escape and make a huge mess!
- Place the bag on a flat surface and using a rolling pin begin to flatten the bag to create a single layer of cookies.
- Next, gently "roll" over the bag until the cookies are crushed to the size you need for the recipe.
- If you don't have a rolling pin, you can always use a meat cleaver. I've even used the back of a stainless steel measuring cup.

📋Ingredients
This is an overview of the ingredients and instructions. Be sure to see the recipe card below for exact quantities, detailed instructions and special notes.

💡 Substitutions and Variations
- Swap out the chocolate pudding for vanilla or even cheesecake flavored pudding mix.
- Use a different flavored cookie or even graham crackers!
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Step 1: Whisk together the pudding mix and milk in a large bowl.
- Step 2: Then in another bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the heavy cream until it forms soft peaks.
- Step 3: Next, crush the Oreo cookies into crumbs following the tips listed above.
- Step 4: Add the heavy cream to a bowl and using a hand mixer, mix until whipped cream forms, this may take several minutes.


📌Quick Tip: You don't have to add any sugar to the whipped cream. There's enough sweetness in the pudding mix. However, if you wanted to, you could whip the cream with 2 tablespoons of granulated or powdered sugar for extra sweetness.

How to Layer the Pudding Dessert
- Start by adding a layer of the pudding to the bottom of the glass.
- Then add a little whipped cream followed by cookie crumbs.
- Repeat until the glass is full!
- Refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving.

➡️Top Recipe Tip
- Remember to reserve a few of the Oreo cookie crumbss to sprinkle on top of the pudding parfait.
- Keep a few of the cookies whole as well to place on top of the parfait.

🥣Serving Tips
- It's always best to serve any type of parfait in clear glass serving bowls.
- You want to be able to see the different layers of pudding, whipped cream and of course the delicious Oreo cookie crumbs.
- Any glass bowl will work for this recipe. Just make sure it's tall enough so you can get a few different layers added to the glass.
- Mason jars work really great for desserts like this too as with my recipe for Easy No Bake Mason Jar Pudding Desserts.
- Lastly, if you don't have individual glasses or mason jars for this recipe, a clear glass bowl works great too. You'll need to layer everything inside the clear glass bowl and then serve it into individual plates or bowls when the dessert is ready.
🍶Storage Tips
- If you have any leftovers, the best way to store them is by covering with plastic wrap or an airtight lid and placing it in the refrigerator.
- For a short-term storage option, you can leave the parfait in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.
- Just make sure that it's covered tightly to prevent any air or moisture from getting in, which can cause the whipped cream to deflate and the pudding to become runny.
💡Recipe FAQ
Simply click the plus sign to read more about the questions you see below. If YOU have a question regarding this recipe, please let me know in the comment section.
A trifle is typically made with layers of sponge cake or ladyfingers, soaked in sherry or another sweet liqueur, and then layered with custard, berries or fruit, and whipped cream. The layers are usually repeated multiple times to create a visually stunning dessert that's perfect for sharing. Trifles can be served in a large glass dish or in individual servings.
A parfait, on the other hand, usually consists of layered ingredients like fruit, yogurt, granola, nuts, and whipped cream, all served in a tall glass. Parfaits do not typically contain cake or any kind of alcohol, and they are often served as a breakfast or healthy snack option.
Try stirring in a spoonful of peanut butter, a drizzle of caramel sauce, or a dash of cinnamon to give your pudding a unique twist. Or you could add crushed cookie crumbs to the pudding!
