With two babies sharing our bed, my husband and I don’t find much time to get all romantical and stuff. Friday night I decided to pull out all the stops and get down and dirty… with this crazy delicious Oreo Cheesecake Parfait for Two! Loaded with chocolate, cheesecake and Oreo goodness, this parfait is perfect for snuggling close and feeding each other spoonfuls of heaven… Oh how romantical!

After work and dinner, bath time and stories, whiny children and bed time struggles, it’s hard to make time for each other every day. Especially when we could close our minds and lounge on the couch with Netflix. This dessert brings fun to end a hectic day with a little bit of romance, especially when paired with a couple of candles and an excellent bottle of merlot.

How to make an Oreo Cheesecake Parfait

This Oreo Cheesecake Parfait for Two is easy to make, just takes a bit of time. You first need to create each layer and have them ready to go before building the parfait. Have your Oreos crumbled, make the cheesecake layer, have the ganache ready to go and the whipped cream whipped! Build the layers and BOOM! You’ve got yourself a deliciously romantic parfait for two!

Oreo Cheesecake Parfait instructions

  • In a microwave safe bowl, melt chocolate chips with heavy cream. Whisk every 30 seconds until fully combined then set aside to cool.
  • In a food processor blend a few oreos into crumbs. Fill the bottom of a parfait cup with 1/4 cup.
  • In a stand mixer with the whisk attachment whip some more heavu cream into soft peaks. Add vanilla and whip into stiff peaks. Scrape into a bowl and set aside. With the paddle attachment beat the cream cheese until it’s super smooth. Sift some icing sugar into the cream cheese and beat well, scraping down sides as you go. Add 1/2 of the whipped cream to the cream cheese and stir until just combined. In the processor pulse 3 Oreos until roughly crumbled and stir into cream cheese. Spoon half of the Oreo cheesecake into the parfait cup and spread evenly.
  • Pour half of the ganache over the Oreo cheesecake layer. Sprinkle the second half of the Oreo crumbs over the ganache, saving 1 tbsp for garnish. Spoon the second half of the cheesecake out and spread evenly before pouring the rest of the ganache on top.  
  • Pipe the reserved whipped cream over the ganache and sprinkle with 1 tbsp remaining Oreo crumbs. Grab two spoons and dig in!

How long do Oreo Cheesecake Parfaits last?

Do you mean, like, how long does it take to inhale these beauties? Or how long can they potentially last for, if untouched, in the fridge?

They certainly don’t last longer than 5 and a half seconds in my house.

If you want to make them ahead of time, they should be fine if kept in the refrigerator for 3 days. You’d have to hide it though if anyone lives with you.. just in case 😜
