Halloween Dirt Cups are a fun, no-bake dessert. They feature layers of rich chocolate pudding and crushed Oreo ‘dirt’, topped with playful gummy worms for a creepy-crawly look and delicious chocolatey taste.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (5.9 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 3 cups cold milk
  • 1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 (14.3 ounce) package Oreo cookies
  • 1 (5 ounce) package gummy worms
  • 6-8 clear plastic cups or small jars

Instructions

  1. Crush the Oreo cookies. You can do this by placing them in a Ziploc bag and crushing them with a rolling pin, or by using a food processor.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and cold milk for 2 minutes, or until thickened.
  3. Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping into the pudding mixture until well combined.
  4. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of crushed Oreos into the bottom of each cup.
  5. Add a layer of chocolate pudding mixture over the Oreos, filling the cup about halfway.
  6. Add another layer of crushed Oreos on top of the pudding.
  7. Continue layering pudding and Oreos until the cups are full, ending with a layer of crushed Oreos on top to resemble ‘dirt’.
  8. Insert a few gummy worms into the top layer of ‘dirt’ in each cup, positioning them as if they are crawling out.
  9. Refrigerate the dirt cups for at least 30 minutes before serving, or until thoroughly chilled.

Notes

  • For extra fun, use different colors of gummy candies or other Halloween-themed candies.
  • You can make these ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Adjust the amount of crushed Oreos and pudding to your preference.
  • If you don’t have clear cups, any small dessert cups or bowls will work.
