HOW TO MAKE PEPPERMINT CHEESECAKE PARFAITS

Here is a simple visual guide to the process of making this creamy mint dessert. Full printable recipe is found below.

First pulse chocolate wafers in a food processor until ground to a fine crumb, then pulse in melted butter.

Mix together the white chocolate pudding mix and milk in a large mixing bowl.

Beat in the cream cheese until smooth.

Then add the dry cheesecake pudding mix, food coloring and peppermint extract. Mix well, then fold in the whipped topping. Chill for 1 hour minimum to set.

Fill each cup with a scoop of the cookie crumbs, then pipe in the Peppermint cheesecake mousse and garnish with a sprinkle of crushed peppermint candies to serve. Add whipped cream if you like, though I don't actually think it is necessary.
