Main Ingredients

  • 8 pieces graham crackers (for crumbs)
  • 1 3-ounce package instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 2 cups cold milk Use chocolate milk for a richer flavor
  • 1 8-ounce container whipped topping (thawed if frozen)
  • ½ cup marshmallow fluff
  • 1 piece graham cracker (broken into 4 pieces for garnish)
  • 4 pieces mini chocolate bars (for garnish)
  • mini marshmallows (for sprinkling)
  • chocolate sprinkles (for finishing)

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Crush the 8 graham cracker squares into fine crumbs. Divide the crumbs among four cups, adding a layer to the bottom of each.
  • In a bowl, whisk the instant chocolate pudding mix with 2 cups cold milk until smooth and slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
  • Spoon half of the pudding over the graham crumb layer in each cup. Smooth to even.
  • Add a second thin layer of graham cracker crumbs on top of the pudding layer.
  • Measure out half the whipped topping and fold it into the remaining pudding until blended and lighter in texture.
  • Spread this pudding-whipped mixture over the graham layer in each cup. Add another layer of graham crumbs on top.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the remaining whipped topping with ½ cup marshmallow fluff. Beat until smooth and fluffy.
  • Spoon or pipe the marshmallow-whipped mixture over each cup for a billowy top.
  • Refrigerate the parfaits for at least 4 hours to set and meld flavors.
  • When ready to serve, press one broken graham cracker piece and one mini chocolate bar into each parfait. Sprinkle mini marshmallows and chocolate sprinkles over the top. Serve chilled.

Notes

For gluten-free, use gluten-free graham-style crumbs or crushed GF cookies. For dairy-free, swap in dairy-free chocolate pudding mix and coconut whipped topping. Not recommended for freezing after assembly; separate components if necessary.
