Instructions
Step 1: Crush the Oreos
- Using a food processor or rolling pin, crush all the Oreos into fine crumbs.
- Set aside 1 cup of crushed Oreos for the topping.
- Mix the remaining crumbs with melted butter and press into the bottom of a 9×13-inch dish.
Step 2: Make the Creamy Filling
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.
- In another bowl, whisk together pudding mix, milk, and vanilla extract until thickened.
- Fold the pudding mixture into the cream cheese mixture.
- Gently fold in whipped topping until well combined.
Step 3: Assemble the Dirt Cake
- Spread the cream filling evenly over the Oreo crust.
- Sprinkle the reserved crushed Oreos evenly on top to create the “dirt” layer.
- Decorate with gummy worms for a fun touch!
Step 4: Chill & Serve
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight for best results).
- Scoop and serve chilled!
