Transform simple ingredients into a hauntingly delicious Halloween treat with these Graveyard Dirt Cups.

The addition of RIP-marked rectangular cookies, gummy worms, and candy eyes turns each cup into a spooky little scene perfect for your holiday party.
Ingredients
Directions
- Place the four sandwich cookies inside a resealable plastic bag. Seal it tightly and use a rolling pin to pound them until they break down into fine, sandy crumbs. Alternatively, you can pulse them in a food processor for a quicker result.
- Take your two rectangular cookies and use a toothpick dipped in dark food coloring or a food-safe marker to write "RIP" on each one, creating miniature tombstones.
- Spoon half of the prepared cookie crumbs into the bottom of your serving glasses. Press a few white chocolate chips against the inner sides of the glass so they peek out like hidden treasures.
- Pour your cup of chocolate pudding over the crumb base. Use a spatula to smooth the surface until it is completely flat and level.
- Sprinkle the remaining cookie crumbs evenly over the pudding to create a dirt-like topping. Gently press one of your RIP-marked rectangular cookies into the center so it stands upright.
- Place additional white chocolate chips on the surface and use a food marker or gel coloring to draw pupils, transforming them into spooky eyes. Just before you serve the treats, tuck gummy worms into the pudding and place edible eyeballs around the rim for a final creepy touch.
