Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Melt the candy melts according to the package instructions then pipe them into the shapes of stars with a 1 1/2-inch line coming off the bottom of each star. (This will serve as the piece that sticks into the whipped cream.) Immediately sprinkle the stars with the sprinkles before the candy melt sets. Set the stars aside or refrigerate them until they’ve fully hardened.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the cream cheese, heavy cream, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Transfer the mixture into a piping bag or sealable plastic bag.
- Add a layer of the crushed cookies to each serving glass. Pipe a layer of the cheesecake filling on top of the cookies, then top the cheesecake with a layer of blueberries and a dollop of whipped cream.
- Using an offset spatula, carefully release each candy melt star from the baking sheet. Top each parfait with a candy melt star and serve immediately.
