Cereal always sounds good to me, whether it be for breakfast, lunch, dinner or dessert - a bowl of cereal is guaranteed to hit the spot! I don't normally do anything fancy with it, just add milk and it's ready for devouring - but I decided to do something a little extra this time. These Cheesecake Mousse Parfaits with Honey Bunches of Oats are a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for satisfying any sweet-tooth or cereal craving you're having.  Layers of creamy cheesecake mousse, soft gooey caramel and crunchy Honey Bunches of Oats with Real Strawberries.


Honey Bunches of Oats has been one of my favorite cereals for as long as I can remember, and lucky for me my kids share my cereal love. When we went to pick up the cereal for the Cheesecake Mousse Parfaits they were so excited to see the Sing movie characters on the box of one of their favorite cereals! {They've been watching the trailer to Sing on repeat, anticipating it's release on December 21st.} Post is currently running the SING National Sweepstakes, with a grand prize of $100,000 and instant prizes like movie tickets, headphones, bluetooth speakers, and more. For a chance to win, just enter a code that is found in specially marked boxes of Post cereals on the SING Sweepstakes website - easy peasy!


These Cheesecake Mousse Parfaits with Honey Bunches of Oats were easy to make and so delicious to eat! After making the Cheesecake Mousse, just layer the ingredients and enjoy. Layering the ingredients was the fun part - especially with 4 sets of little hands helping out. The combination of flavors and textures blend perfectly together; the cheesecake mousse, caramel sauce and Honey Bunches of Oats with Real Strawberries.
