Ingredients
- 15 whole Oreo cookies
- 2/3 cup heavy cream
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar , divided
- 8 ounce package cream cheese , softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
Instructions
- Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse several times until crumbs form. Transfer to a bowl.
- In a large bowl, beat heavy cream with an electric mixer until it starts to thicken; slowly add in 1/4 cup of the powdered sugar. Continue to mix until thickened and stiff peaks form. (Do not overheat or it will become thick and clumpy.) Pour into a bowl; set aside.

- With a spatula, gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, until just combined.

Notes
To make assembly easiest, fill a large Ziploc bag with the mousse mixture, cut off a small corner, and pipe into the glasses.
Use different Oreos. Replace the regular Oreos with mint or golden ones.
Make it minty. Add in a 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract.
Make it boozy. Blend in some Baileys Irish Cream for an adult parfait.
