Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup vanilla pudding or mousse prepared and chilled
  • 1 cup crushed vanilla cookies or graham crackers for crunch layer

  1. Start by spooning a layer of vanilla pudding into the bottom of each glass, smoothing it out with the back of a spoon for an even base.
  2. Add a layer of crushed cookies over the vanilla pudding, spreading them to create a crunchy contrast.
  3. Next, carefully pipe or spoon the orange-flavored pudding on top, creating a distinct orange layer above the cookies.
  4. Follow with a layer of yellow-colored pudding, adding it over the orange layer to complete the colorful stacking.
  5. Repeat the layering process if desired for a taller parfait, or finish with a final dollop of pudding on top.
