"DIRT PUDDING" PUMPKIN PATCH

I was bringing a dessert to a 'spooky Halloween dinner,' and wanted to make something creative. I had heard of the 'dirt cup' recipes with gummy worms before, but I wanted to do something a little different, so I adapted the recipe to this! Kiddos loved it and so did the adults!

Time 30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 (14 ounce) packages chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreo®)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
½ cup butter, softened
½ cup confectioners' sugar
3 ½ cups milk
2 (3.5 ounce) packages instant chocolate pudding mix
1 (12 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 (5 ounce) bag gummy worm candies
40 candy (mellocreme) pumpkins
½ cup vanilla frosting
1 drop green food coloring

Steps:

  • Crush cookies in 2 or 3 batches in a food processor. Pulse until you get fine crumbs, about 30 seconds per batch. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Place cream cheese, butter, and confectioner's sugar in food processor; mix until smooth, about 30 seconds.
  • Whisk milk and pudding mixes together in a bowl until pudding is thickened; fold in whipped topping. Stir in cream cheese-butter mixture.
  • Press 1/3 of the cookie crumbs onto the bottom of a 9x13-inch pan. Sprinkle half of the gummy worms on the crumb layer. Spread half of the pudding mixture over the crumbs and candy. Carefully layer another 1/3 of the crumbs over the pudding mixture and sprinkle on more gummy worms. Add the last layer of cookie crumbs and smooth them out for your "pumpkin patch."
  • Place pumpkin candy in rows with enough room to for frosting "vines" and "leaves."
  • Tint frosting with green food coloring and transfer to piping bag. Connect pumpkins with "vines" and add swirling tendrils. Switch to a leaf tip and create some leaves.
