Ingredients

• 25 cookies Chocolate sandwich cookies (e.g., Oreo)
• 2 boxes Instant chocolate pudding mix (3.9 oz box)
• 4 cups Milk
• 8 oz Cream cheese
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 16 oz Whipped topping (e.g., Cool Whip), thawed
• 12 pieces Gummy worms (optional, for decoration)

Directions

Step 1

Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely crushed. If you don't have a food processor, place the cookies in a resealable plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin. Set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and milk until smooth and thickened. This will take about 2 minutes. Set aside to allow it to fully set.

Step 3

In another mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add the powdered sugar and beat until well combined.

Step 4

Fold the whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated and fluffy.

Step 5

Gently fold the prepared chocolate pudding into the cream cheese and whipped topping mixture until smooth. This will create your pudding layer.

Step 6

To assemble, layer half of the crushed cookies into the bottom of a 9x13-inch dish or individual cups, spreading evenly to create the 'dirt' base.

Step 7

Spread the pudding mixture evenly over the layer of crushed cookies.

Step 8

Top with the remaining crushed cookies to create the 'dirt' topping.

Step 9

Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the layers settle and the dessert chill.

Step 10

Before serving, decorate with gummy worms for a playful and fun touch. Serve chilled.
