1 cup chocolate sandwich cookie crumbs, (about 15 cookies)

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

1 cup (6 ounces) dark or semisweet chocolate, chopped

1 1/2 cups heavy cream, divided

16 ounces cream cheese, room temperature

1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoons espresso powder

2 tablespoons light brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

3/4 cup powdered sugar, divided

1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract

2 tablespoons coffee flavored liqueur

chocolate covered espresso beans and whipped cream, for garnish

1. In a small bowl, mix cookie crumbs with melted butter. Press 3 tablespoons of crumb mixture in the bottom of each parfait glass and refrigerate.

For the chocolate ganache:

1. In a 2-quart Farberware® purECOok™ Ceramic Nonstick saucepan, bring 1/2 cup heavy cream up to a scant boil and pour over chopped chocolate. Let stand for about 30 seconds and whisk until smooth. Divide evenly between parfait glasses and refrigerate.

To make cheesecake:

1. In the bowl of an electric mixer, or using a hand mixer, mix cream cheese, espresso powder, light brown sugar, cinnamon and 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons powdered sugar until light and airy.
2. In a separate bowl, whip remaining cup of heavy cream, vanilla bean paste and remaining 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons powdered sugar on medium speed until it starts to get some body.
3. Add coffee liqueur and continue to whip on medium-high speed until stiff.
4. Stir about 1/3 of the whipped cream into the cheesecake mixture to lighten it. Gently fold in the remaining whipped cream until everything is combined.
5. Fill parfait glasses with cheesecake mixture using either a spoon or a piping bag and refrigerate until ready to serve.
6. When ready to serve, top with whipped cream and chocolate covered espresso beans.
