Ingredients

2cupsmilk
8oz.cool whip
4oz.cream cheese
10oz.Oreo cookies- crushed

Instructions
Mix pudding. In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to blend the milk and instant chocolate pudding. Mix until the pudding thickens.
Mix cool whip and cream cheese. In a separate bowl, use the hand mixer to combine the cool whip and cream cheese until creamy.
Combine. Pour the creamy chocolate pudding into the cool whip mixture, and combine again until very well combined. The pudding mixture should be thick.
Layer. Use individual cups to layer the ingredients. Start by spooning some of the pudding, then some crushed Oreos, and repeat.
Top with gummy worms and googly eyes. Add the worms and spooky eyes to the top of the pudding dirt cups!
Notes
Storing
If you’re making these in advance, wait to add the gummy worms and edible eyes until serving.
You can also make the pudding and keep it chilled. Then assemble right before party time.
These stay well in the refrigerator (before adding worms and edible eyes) for up to four days.
Pro-Tip: Use clear jars or smaller cups for serving. You'll want to clearly see the pudding and Oreo layers.
