Dirt Cake is fun to serve at family gatherings, or to give as a gift. I've also taken it to church dinners. It not only tastes good but is unique.

Ingredients

  • 1 package (15-1/2 ounces) Oreo cookies
  • 2 clean new plastic flower pots, about 6 inches in diameter
  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 cups whole milk
  • 2 packages (3.4 ounces each) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 carton (12 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • Silk flowers, aluminum foil, gummy worms and clean new gardening tools, optional

Directions

  1. Crush cookies until they resemble potting soil. Divide half of the crumbs between the flower pots. Set pots and remaining crumbs aside.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter, sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy. In another bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes (mixture will be thick). Fold in whipped topping. Gently fold into cream cheese mixture until blended.
  3. Add filling to pots; top with reserved crumbs. Cover and refrigerate until chilled. If desired, wrap silk flower stems in foil; add to flower pots. Decorate with gummy worms and display with gardening tools if desired.
