Ingredients

for the cheesecake batter

  • 8 oz cream cheese (at room temperature)
  • ½ teaspoon clear vanilla extract
  • ½ cup granulated white sugar
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2-3 tablespoons fanta orange
  • drop of orange food color [optional]

Oreo crust/base

  • ¾ cup oreo crumbs [from about 10 oreo sandwich cookies]
  • 1.5 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)

Spooky eyes

  • 4 oreos
  • candy eyeballs
  • red food color marker

Method

Make the cheesecake batter

  1. Beat cream cheese using paddle attachment of your stand mixer or use your hand mixer. Mix till it's smooth.
  2. Add granulated sugar and vanilla extract and beat till well combined. [Note: I used clear vanilla extract as I didn't want the color of my cream cheese to change, I wanted it to remain as white as possible]
  3. Divide the cream cheese mixture equally into 2 bowls.
  4. Add few tablespoons of fanta orange to one of the 2 bowls and mix till well combined. At this point you can add little orange food color if you want your batter to look more orange, this is optional.
  5. Beat heavy cream using the wire whisk attachment of your stand mixer or using your hand mixer. Remember to chill the bowl and the attachment for 15-20 minutes before beating the cream.
  6. Once the cream is whipped, divide it into 2 equal parts.
  7. Fold the whipped cream into the two colored bowls, till well combined. Place these bowl in the refrigerator while your prepare the rest of the stuff.

Make the oreo crust

  1. Using your food processor crush the oreo cookies into fine crumbs. Add melted butter to it and mix.
  2. Take your 2 serving glasses (or use 4 small serving glasses) and put half of the prepared oreo mixture (divided equally) at the bottom of the glasses.
  3. Reserve the remaining oreo crumbs for other layers of the parfait. Place the glasses in the freezer for 15-20 minutes.

Make the spooky oreo eyes

  1. Twist and open each oreo sandwich cookie.
  2. On the cream side, place candy eyeball and attach it to the cookie. I used little store bought caramel sauce to stick the eyeball.
  3. Use your red food marker to draw veins all around the eyeball.
  4. Repeat till you have 3-4 eyes ready. Set aside.

Arrange the parfait

  1. Take out the cheesecake mixture from the refrigerator and transfer the white and orange part to 2 different piping bags.
  2. Take out the chilled glasses from the freezer and put some orange cheesecake batter on top of the oreo cookie crust/base. Then place the white cheesecake batter on top of it.
  3. Then place the remaining oreo crumbs on top of the white cheesecake batter.
  4. Repeat all the layers, finishing with white cheesecake batter on top.
  5. Garnish with more crushed oreo and prepared spooky eyes.
  6. Chill the no bake oreo cheesecake parfait for 3-4 hours before serving!
