Make this fun, no-bake Oreo Dirt Cake layered with creamy pudding and crushed cookies. It is a simple dessert perfect for parties or family treats.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 large container (12 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 2 packages (3.9 ounces each) instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 3 cups cold milk
  • 1 package (14.3 ounces) Oreo cookies, finely crushed (reserve some for topping)
  • Gummy worms, for decoration

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until smooth.
  2. Add the powdered sugar and mix until fully combined. Fold in the thawed whipped topping gently. Set this mixture aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and cold milk for about two minutes until the mixture thickens.
  4. Gently fold the thickened pudding mixture into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Crush the Oreo cookies until they resemble fine dirt. You can use a food processor or place them in a sealed bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
  6. If serving in a large dish, layer half of the crushed Oreos on the bottom. If making individual cups, layer crushed Oreos in the bottom of each cup.
  7. Spoon or pipe the cream cheese/pudding mixture over the cookie layer.
  8. Top the pudding layer with the remaining crushed Oreos to create the ‘dirt’ layer.
  9. Chill the dirt cake for at least four hours, or overnight, to allow it to set.
  10. Before serving, insert gummy worms into the top layer for decoration.

Notes

  • For individual servings, use small clear plastic cups to show off the layers. This is a great alternative to a large pan.
  • If you are planning your weekly meals, this dessert is simple enough to prepare ahead of time, unlike complex recipes requiring a sous-vide precision cooker.
  • If you prefer a richer flavor, you can substitute one cup of the milk with one cup of heavy cream when making the pudding.
