Ingredients
- Chocolate pudding
- Oreos
- Gummy worms
- Whipped cream
Instructions
- Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed plastic bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
- Prepare the chocolate pudding according to package instructions, whisking until smooth and creamy. For best results, use instant chocolate pudding mix.
- Allow the prepared pudding to cool slightly at room temperature for about 3-5 minutes to prevent melting the whipped cream.
- Take clear serving glasses or mason jars to create a transparent "soil layer" effect.
- Begin layering by first adding a generous layer of chocolate pudding at the bottom of each glass, filling approximately one-third of the container.
- Sprinkle a layer of crushed Oreo "soil" crumbs over the chocolate pudding, covering it completely.
- Add another layer of chocolate pudding on top of the Oreo crumbs.
- Repeat the layering process, alternating pudding and Oreo crumbs until the glass is nearly full.
- Top the final layer with a thick coating of Oreo crumbs to resemble soil.
- Strategically place gummy worms partially buried in the "soil" layers, allowing some to peek out for a realistic effect.
- Optional: Add a dollop of whipped cream on top for extra decoration.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow layers to set and flavors to meld.
Tips
- Use clear glasses or mason jars to showcase the beautiful layers and create visual appeal.
- For the most realistic "soil" texture, crush Oreos into fine, consistent crumbs.
- Let pudding cool slightly before layering to prevent melting and maintain distinct layers.
- Chill the dessert for at least 30 minutes to help layers set and enhance flavor melding.
- Get creative with gummy worm placement - some peeking out, some buried deep creates a more realistic effect.
- For a gourmet touch, use high-quality instant chocolate pudding mix.
- Make these ahead of time for easy party preparation - they actually taste better after chilling!
