Equipment

1 Trifle dish or glass baking dish

Ingredients

2 14 ounce Packages of Oreos Single Stuffed
3 ½ cups milk
2 3.4 ounce Packages of French vanilla pudding mix
8 ounces Cream cheese softened
1 cup Powdered sugar
16 ounces Whipped topping thawed
Gummy worms optional, for topping

Instructions

Place Oreos into a large Ziploc bag, press out the air, and seal. Use a rolling pin or meat mallet to crush them into crumbs and set aside
In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth, then set aside for now
In another large mixing bowl, whisk together milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Set aside for a few minutes or until mixture thickens.
Take the pudding out of the fridge and gently fold the cream cheese mixture into it with a rubber spatula. Once combined, fold the whipped topping in as well.
*If using trifle: Sprinkle a little less than half of the crushed Oreos onto the bottom of a trifle dish. Add half of the whipped mixture neatly. Add more crushed Oreos to your trifle, reserving some for the top. Add the rest of the topping. Finish with reserved Oreos and gummy worms. (See photo above!)
*If using 9x13 casserole: (Note! You will have leftovers!) Add the crushed oreos halfway up the casserole dish reserving some Oreos for the top. Add the whipped topping until it reaches the top. Finished with reserved Oreos and gummy worms.
If there are any leftovers, layer them in mini cups and serve with spoons!

Notes

What To Serve Dirt Pudding In

Casserole dish: Most of us have a 9x13 inch casserole dish. I prefer glass so you can see the layers! Note* If you use this, you will have more leftover.

Glass trifle dish: If you want pretty layers like in the photos here, make this in a glass trifle dish! It's a pretty presentation and would make a great centerpiece.

Small Mason jars: Use small Mason jars to make individual servings of dirt pudding!

Small Plastic Cups: These are inexpensive and great for individual servings.

Plastic bucket: You can really get into the "dirt" theme by making this pudding in a plastic bucket, and serve with a sand shovel for extra credit!
