Ingredients

Garnish

  • 18 regular Oreo Cookies cream included, crushed
  • 10 regular Milano Cookies
  • 3 Tablespoons Black Frosting or Black Gel
  • 10 Gummy Worms
  • 20 small Halloween Theme Candies Candy Pumpkins, Bones, or Cats

Pudding Mixture

  • 2 3.9-oz boxes Instant Chocolate Pudding
  • 4 cups Milk
  • 2 cups Cool Whip or prepared whipped cream

Instructions

Prepare the Garnish

  • Add the Oreo cookies to a plastic bag and crush with a glass cup or rolling pin until the crumbs resemble "dirt" sized texture.
  • To make the gravestone, place the Milano cookies on a baking tray. Add the black frosting to a piping bag with a small round tip. Write the letters RIP on the gravestone.

Pudding Mixture

  • Add 4 cups of cold milk to a large mixing bowl. Add the pudding mix and whisk until smooth. Let it sit for 3-5 min or until set.
  • Add thawed Cool Whip to the pudding mixture and mix until combined and smooth. (You can use a hand mixer to speed up the process)

Assembling the Dirt Cups

  • Into each 12-ounce cup, add about ⅔ cup pudding mixture. Shake or tap each cup on the counter to settle the pudding mixture.
  • Add about 2 tablespoons of the cookie crumbs, then decorate with a Milano cookie, a gummy work, and the Halloween candies.
  • Chill for 30 minutes or serve immediately. Enjoy!
