DIY | Dirt Pudding Cups with Worms (EWWW!)
With Halloween around the corner, I wanted my students to get into the spooky spirit. I prepared this disgustingly delicious recipe for my cooking class this week and it was a huge hit! The faces of the kids were priceless once I told them we would be 'trying dirt and worms' for dessert. Overall, this recipe is easy to make, cheap, perfect for a birthday party activity, and of course perfect for this holiday season!
Enjoy!

1 15-ounce package of Oreos
1 3.9-ounce package instant chocolate pudding
8 ounces container of Cool Whip
Begin by emptying your cookies into a plastic ziplock bag to create the 'dirt.' Simply smash the contents with a rolling pin until the consistency is grainy like dirt. (No need to remove the white cream, it will blend in with the cookies)
Next, make the pudding by mixing the package with two cups of milk. Stir until smooth and let sit for 5 minutes until it thickens.
Now add the 8 ounces of Cool Whip to the pudding, along with a few cookie crumbs to create the illusion of mud. Stir until smooth.
Now for the fun part. Scoop some 'mud pudding' into your cup till it's about 3/4 full.
Next, take 3-4 worms and place them into the 'mud' closer to the edge of the cup. This will give the illusion of the worms crawling out of the cup.
Finally, partially cover the worms with your 'cookie dirt' and prepare to dig in!
Ps. I highly recommend using the 'sour' worms. The flavor compliments the chocolate pudding very well.
