Instructions
- In a food processor, combine the chocolate cookies with the 1/4 cup almonds. Process until crumbs. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy (about 2 minutes). Add in sugar, cocoa and almond extract. Beat an additional 3-5 minutes until fluffy. Fold in whipped topping until blended.
- In two serving dishes (I used stemless wine glasses), spoon about 1/4 cup of cookie crumbs into the bottom. Dollop some of the cheesecake mixture. Repeat several times for a layered look. Top with whipped topping, sliced almonds, and any extra cookie crumbs! Refrigerate until ready to serve. ENJOY!
Notes
- Store in refrigerator until ready to serve.
- You could omit the almonds from this recipe to make a straight-forward chocolate cheesecake parfait. Just swap out the almond extract for vanilla extract in the cheesecake mixture and don’t add nuts to the cookie crust.
- You can assemble the parfaits a few hours in advance and keep them refrigerated until you’re ready to serve. I don’t recommend storing them for more than a few hours though. The cookie crust layers will get soft and loose their crunch.
- We use chocolate wafer sandwich cookies. Chocolate graham crackers are another tasty option! If you don’t want a chocolate flavor in your crust layers, use crushed vanilla wafers or vanilla sandwich cookies instead.
