Instructions
- Mix pudding according to package directions. In a small zip-top bag, crush cookies into coarse crumbs. To make parfait, spoon in about 1 tablespoon of crushed cookies and top with 1/4 cup of prepared pudding. Repeat, and top with 1 tablespoon of crushed cookies. Place in refrigerator to chill.

Notes
Pro Tips: 1. Marzipan is an almond paste (made from almond meal and sugar) that is usually found in the baking aisle of the store. It is easy to color with food coloring and create edible garnishes for desserts! 2. No marzipan? Top dessert with fresh strawberries and chopped pistachios instead.
