- 1 cup Fresh fruit (e.g., berries or sliced bananas, optional)

Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the instant pudding mix and cold milk. Whisk for 2 minutes until the mixture thickens and is free of lumps.
Step 2
Let the pudding sit for 5 minutes to set completely.
Step 3
Gently fold the whipped topping into the pudding using a spatula, creating a light and airy texture.

In clear serving glasses or jars, layer the parfaits by starting with a tablespoon of crushed cookies at the bottom.
Step 5
Add a layer of pudding mixture on top of the cookies, filling about 1/3 of the glass.
Step 6
If using fresh fruit, add a layer of your chosen fruit on top of the pudding.
Step 7
Repeat the layers (cookies, pudding, and optional fruit) until the glasses are filled, finishing with a pudding layer on top.
Step 8
Sprinkle chocolate chips, sprinkles, or extra crushed cookies on the top layer for garnish.
Step 9
Refrigerate the parfaits for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld and set completely.
Step 10
Serve chilled and enjoy!
