1 h 15 min6 servings

Ingredients

  • 12 Oreo Cookies, crushed
  • 16 oz Cool Whip
  • 1 box Instant Chocolate Pudding Mix (3.3 oz)
  • 2 cups Milk
  • 8 Milano Cookies
  • Gummy Worms (optional)
  • Candy Pumpkins (optional)
  • Wilton Black Writing Icing

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the pudding: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and 2 cups of milk for about 2 minutes until the mixture thickens. Let it set for 5 minutes to fully thicken.

  2. 2

    Crush Oreos: Place the 12 Oreo cookies into a plastic bag and crush them into small, dirt-like crumbs using a rolling pin or your hands. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Layer the cups: In serving cups or bowls, start by adding a layer of crushed Oreo crumbs to mimic dirt. Then, add a layer of chocolate pudding followed by a layer of Cool Whip. Repeat the layers to fill the cups, ending with a generous layer of crushed Oreos on top.

  4. 4

    Add toppings: Place 1 Milano cookie on top of each cup to resemble a stone or fence. Decorate with gummy worms and candy pumpkins for a fun Halloween effect. Use Wilton Black Writing Icing to add any desired spooky designs or messages on the Milano cookies or around the rim of the cups.

  5. 5

    Chill: Refrigerate the dirt cups for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the layers to set and flavors to meld together.
