Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse until they are finely crushed. If you don't have a food processor, place the cookies in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy. Add the powdered sugar and mix until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and milk until thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
Fold the pudding mixture into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
Gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is light and fluffy.
To assemble the dirt cake, spread a thin layer of the crushed cookies in the bottom of a 9x13-inch pan or a large trifle dish. Add a layer of the cream cheese pudding mixture, spreading it evenly.
Repeat the layers of crushed cookies and cream cheese pudding mixture, ending with a layer of crushed cookies on top.
For a fun, decorative touch, scatter gummy worms over the top of the dirt cake.
Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until well chilled. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
