GHOSTS IN THE GRAVEYARD

Steps:

• Crush the oreo cookies in a plastic bag using a rolling pin, or in a food processor.
• Pour milk into large bowl.
• Add pudding mixes.
• Beat with wire whisk 2 minutes or until well blended.
• Let pudding stand 5 minutes.
• Gently stir in 1/2 each of the whipped topping and crushed cookies.
• Spoon into 13x9-inch dish; sprinkle with remaining crushed cookies to be the"dirt" of the graveyard.
• Refrigerate for at least an hour or until ready to serve.
• Decorate the remaining cookies with assorted icings to resemble tombstones,"RIP" and"BOO" are nice sayings; stand up cookies in top of dessert like graves.
• Add candies and plastic"scary" creatures, if using.
• Drop remaining whipped topping by spoonfuls onto dessert to resemble ghosts.
• What works best is to make the cool-whip"ghosts" ahead on a cookie sheet and store them in the freezer until ready to use.
• That way they don't flop over.
• Two or three small, round dollups of cool-whip (like a snowman) make nice looking ghosts.
• You should be able to make 2 or 3 ghosts.
• Remove"ghosts" from the freezer and give them"eyes" and a"mouth" using the brown decorating icing.
• Place"ghosts" in the graveyard.
• Small plastic spiders, cobwebs, or mini monsters are a nice addition too.
• To serve, just scoop out into bowls.
• Store leftover dessert in refrigerator.
