Tiramisu Waffle Cookie Parfaits
2 tbsp coffee liqueur
1 cup (8 ounces) mascarpone or cream cheese
1 1/2 cups whipped cream topping
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla or coffee extract
1 bag Stroopwafels (waffle cookies), crumbled
Beat cheese and sugar with a hand mixer until smooth. Mix in extract and liqueur. Gently fold whipped cream into cheese. Transfer filling to a zip lock bag. Chill in a refrigerator until time to serve.
To make parfaits, cut the tip of one end of the zip lock bag to create a piping bag. Pipe mousse into a tall glass to fill about 1/4 way. Add crumbled waffle cookies to fill about 1/4 way. Repeat with mousse and top with cookie crumble.
Serve immediately or return to fridge to chill until ready to serve.
