These creepy crawly dirt cup pudding parfaits are a spooky treat that's as fun to make as they are to eat! With layers of chocolate pudding, cookie crumbs, and gummy worms, they're perfect for Halloween parties or a frightfully delicious dessert.

Ingredients

1 15 oz pkg chocolate sandwich cookies

2 cups cold milk

1 3.4 oz pkg instant chocolate pudding mix

1 tbsp cocoa powder

4 oz cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup Dixie Crystal's sugar

1/4 cup whipped cream

gummy worms, for garnish

Directions

Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse until they become a fine, sand-like powder. Set aside.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the cold milk, instant chocolate pudding mix, and cocoa powder until smooth. Let it sit for 3-5 minutes until it thickens.

In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar with a hand mixer until light and fluffy. Gently fold in the whipped cream and the thickened pudding mixture.

Spoon a generous layer of the pudding mixture into the bottom of a jar. Add an even layer of cookie crumbs on top. Repeat the layers. Finish with a couple of gummy worms on top. Serve immediately.
