Ingredients

  • 1 package of Oreos crushed into fine crumbs
  • 2 packages of instant chocolate pudding mix 3.4 oz each
  • 3 cups of milk
  • 1 package 8 oz of cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup of powdered sugar
  • 1 container 8 oz of whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
  • Gummy worms optional, for decoration

Instructions

Crush the Oreos:

  • Use a food processor or place the Oreos in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin until they turn into fine crumbs. Set aside.

Prepare the Pudding:

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant pudding mix and milk until thickened. Let it sit for a few minutes to set.

Make the Cream Cheese Mixture:

  • In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

Combine Cream Cheese and Whipped Topping:

  • Gently fold the whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.

Layer the Dirt Cake:

  • In a large serving dish (or individual cups), start by spreading a layer of crushed Oreos at the bottom.
  • Add a layer of the pudding mixture on top of the Oreos.
  • Follow with a layer of the cream cheese mixture.
  • Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of crushed Oreos on top.

Decorate:

  • Add gummy worms or other decorations (like candy eyeballs or sprinkles) on top for a playful touch.

Chill and Serve:

  • Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to firm up.
  • Serve chilled and enjoy!
