Ingredients
  

Pudding Mixture

  • 3.4 ounces instant chocolate pudding mix for a rich and creamy base
  • 2 cups cold milk use the freshest milk for a luscious texture
  • 8 ounces whipped topping (thawed) for a light and velvety touch

Toppings

  • 10-12 pieces Oreo cookies (crushed) essential for the 'dirt' effect
  • 32 pieces gummy worms adds a playful spirit to your cups

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Pour the cold milk into a medium-sized bowl. Sprinkle the instant chocolate pudding mix over the top and whisk together until smooth and free of lumps.
  • Set the pudding mixture aside for about five minutes to thicken.
  • Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping using a spatula until fully incorporated.

Assembly

  • Spoon generous portions of the thickened pudding mixture into individual serving glasses, filling them about halfway.
  • Sprinkle crushed Oreo cookies over each cup to create the dirt layer.
  • Decorate each cup with four gummy worms, sticking them into the Oreo layer for a fun effect.
  • Chill the Dirt Cups in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Notes

Ensure the whipped topping is fully thawed before use. Crush the Oreos while they’re still packaged for less mess. Allow pudding enough time to thicken for the best consistency.
