Method
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the granulated sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture in thirds, using a spatula, until fully combined and smooth.
- Spoon a layer of the cheesecake filling into each serving glass, about one-third of the total volume.
- Sprinkle crushed cookies evenly over the first layer for added crunch.
- Repeat with another layer of the cheesecake filling, followed by more crushed cookies.
- Finish with a final layer of cheesecake filling on top, smoothing the surface with a spatula.
- Decorate the parfaits with colorful candies or sprinkles for a festive Halloween touch.
- Chill the parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to set before serving.
