THE BEST OREO DIRT CAKE RECIPE (DIRT PUDDING)

Steps:

• Remove 8 Oreos from the package and place on a cutting board.
• Cut the cookies into small, ¼" pieces, set aside.
• Put the remaining Oreos into the container of a food processor fit with an "S" blade.
• Process until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. You may need to pause, break apart cookies that get stuck to the blades, and continue processing.
• If you don't have a food processor, you can crush the Oreos with a rolling pin.
• Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together milk and pudding. Set aside in the refrigerator to solidify.
• In the bowl of your standing mixer or with a hand-held mixer in a large bowl, cream together butter and cream cheese. Beat until well combined & smooth (about 30-60 seconds).
• Add powdered sugar and beat until smooth.
• Add pudding to the butter/cream cheese mixture (make sure it has set before adding), and beat on low speed to combined.
• Fold in cool whip until the mixture is homogenous (uniform throughout).
• Layer the pudding mixture and cookies. Start by pouring 2 cups of pudding mixture into the bottom of a trifle dish and spread it until level.
• Sprinkle ½ cup cookie crumbs and ¼ cup chopped cookies evenly over the pudding.
• Repeat using 2 cups of pudding, ½ cup cookie crumbs and ¼ cup chopped cookies for each layer.
• Add gummy worms to each layer as desired, or only add some to the top.
• Be sure the final layer is cookie crumbs!
• Refrigerate overnight before serving.
