A few of my friends have asked me for my recipe for what we call "Dirt Cake". You may also know this as Oreo Dessert. When my children have the opportunity to take a snack to school, this is always their choice! While growing up, my mother always made this dessert and layered it in a flower pot. You can add gummy worms (the kids just love this touch) and stick a bunch of artificial flowers in the top for decoration. If you're like me and are fascinated with making 'all things edible', then you could always make vanilla pizzelles and form them into bowls as shown below!
Ingredients:
1 package Oreos, crushed
1/4 cup butter
8 oz. cream cheese
3/4 cup sugar
2 small packages of instant vanilla pudding
2 3/4 cup milk
1 tsp. vanilla
12 oz. cool whip
Crush Oreos in food processor until very fine, set aside. Cream together butter, cream cheese, and sugar. Add vanilla pudding, milk, and vanilla. Fold in cool whip. Starting and ending with the Oreo crumbs, layer Oreos and pudding mixture in your serving dish. Refrigerate to set up and ENJOY!! :)
