Dirt Cake

In my blog about our Young Women's New Beginnings, I mentioned we had Dirt Cake for our refreshments. We also had a fruit plate and veggie plate. To drink we had a punch bowl filled with ice water, orange, lemon, lime slices, and maraschino cherries. I've already given the recipe for Dirt Cake, but thought I would post it again with pictures.

You will need (The recipe I posted before was doubled):
1 large packet instant pudding
milk
1, 8 oz soft cream cheese
1, large container whip topping
1 package oreo cookies (I used store brand)
gummy worms

Using a beater, mix pudding mix and milk according to package directions. Mix in soften cream cheese. It's ok if it's a little lumpy. Fold in whip topping. Set aside pudding mixture.

Put cookies into food processor and process til it looks like dirt. In a clean flower pot line bottom with foil or Saran Wrap (so the cake does not ooze out of the holes in the bottom). Layer cookies, then pudding mixture, then cookies, etc. End with cookies on top. Insert flower into pot, and if you'd like add the gummy worms on top of the "dirt." You could even put the gummy worms through out the cake for an added "surprise."


Here's the finished product....ENJOY!
