Ingredients
  

  • For the Crust
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • For the Cheesecake Filling
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped to stiff peaks
  • For the Candy Corn Layer
  • 1 cup mini candy corn pieces
  • Optional: ¼ cup white chocolate chips for extra sweetness

Instructions
 

  • Step 1: Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press about 2 tbsp of the mixture into the bottom of each parfait glass. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the cheesecake filling.
  • Step 2: Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gently fold in whipped cream until fully incorporated, creating a light and fluffy filling.
  • Step 3: Assemble the Parfaits: Spoon a layer of cheesecake filling over the crust in each glass. Add a layer of candy corn on top of the cheesecake. Repeat layers as desired, finishing with a layer of candy corn or a dollop of whipped cream. Optional: Sprinkle white chocolate chips or drizzle with caramel for extra flair.
  • Step 4: Chill: Refrigerate parfaits for at least 2 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld and layers to set.
