I saw this on the cover of a Paula magazine and decided I had to try it. As anyone who ever reads this blog knows, I LOVE chocolate and peanut butter. It is just an amazing combination. This is a nice creamy dessert, but it's a little rich, but so worth it!
Peanut Butter Parfait
2 cups cold fat-free milk
1 (3.9 ounce) box instant chocolate-flavored pudding mix
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (8 ounce) container cool whip, thawed

In a medium bowl, combine milk and pudding mix; beat at medium speed with an electric mixer for 2 minutes. Set aside. In a medium bowl, combine peanut butter and powdered sugar; beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy. Add cream cheese, beating until smooth. Fold in the cool whip, mixing to combine. In serving glasses, layer pudding, peanuts, peanut butter mixture and crumbled cookies, as desired. Garnish with cookies and chopped peanuts. Store in refrigerator until ready to serve.
