Welcome back to our second installment of ‘what to do with pumpkin snicker doodles”……..besides eating them, of course.  😉

On Friday, We made a yummy batch of pumpkin snicker doodles.  If you didn’t see that post it is right here.

If you made them, hopefully you did not eat the whole batch.  Because we are going to need about 20 of those cookies to make these beautiful Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Parfaits.

I love making parfaits and trifles.  They are easy to put together and they taste so creamy and delicious.  And if they are in an individual Ball jar like this it feels very special to have a dessert all to yourself.

If you make them for company, guests will feel pampered in an extra special way because they can even put the lid on and take these home with them to enjoy when they please.

These Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Parfaits start with the pillowy, soft and yummy homemade pumpkin snickerdoodles that we made the other day.  There are 4 cookies broken up and layered in the jar in between pumpkin pudding and cinnamon cream cheese filling.  They look and taste like fall in a jar.

And they are topped off with a whole cookie that tells  guests what they have to look forward to inside!
