Equipment
- cups for assembling
- mixing bowls
Ingredients
- 2 packages Oreo cookies (approx. 14.3oz each)
- 3.9 oz package instant chocolate pudding mix
- 2 cups cold milk
- 8 oz Cool Whip, thawed (1 container)
- 1/2 cup chocolate sprinkles
- toppings - Halloween cookies, gummy worms, M&M's, candy corn, etc.
Instructions
- Crush the Oreo cookies in a food processor or by placing them in a plastic bag and crushing them with a rolling pin until they are finely ground.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and cold milk until smooth. Refrigerate for 5-10 minutes.
- Fold in the Cool Whip to the pudding mixture until well combined.
- To assemble the Dirt Pudding Cups, spoon a layer of the crushed Oreo cookies into the bottom of each cup, followed by a layer of the pudding mixture.
- Spoon another layer of Oreo cookies and another layer of the pudding mixture.
- Top each cup with a generous sprinkle of the chocolate sprinkles to create a "dirt" layer.
- To make the monster cookies, press two candy eyes onto each cookie, using a small amount of frosting ( or melted chocolate if you have, to hold them in place). Here you can use any toppings and candies you prefer.
- Gently press the monster cookies and a few additional gummy worms into the top of the pudding cups, so that they are partially buried in the "dirt."
- Refrigerate the Dirt Pudding Cups for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the pudding to set.
