Print Recipe

These quick and easy Halloween dirt cups are made with chocolate pudding, crushed Oreos, and gummy worms. No baking required, ready in 5 minutes, and perfect for parties.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (3.9 oz) instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 2 cups cold milk
  • 20 Oreo cookies
  • 1 cup gummy worms
  • 6 small clear cups or glasses (4-ounce size)
  • Optional: whipped topping

Instructions

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and 2 cups of cold milk. Whisk for about 2 minutes until the mixture starts to thicken. If using an electric mixer, beat on low speed for about 1 minute.
  2. Let the pudding sit for about 5 minutes to set.
  3. Place the Oreo cookies in a zip-top bag and seal it tight. Use a rolling pin or heavy pan to crush them into fine crumbs with some small chunks. Alternatively, pulse them in a food processor for about 10 seconds.
  4. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the chocolate pudding into the bottom of each clear cup. Spread it evenly with the back of your spoon.
  5. Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of crushed Oreos over the pudding.
  6. Push 2-3 gummy worms into the cookie layer, letting some stick out the top.
  7. Spoon another 2 tablespoons of pudding over the cookie and worm layer. Spread gently.
  8. Sprinkle the remaining crushed Oreos over the top to cover the pudding completely.
  9. Place another gummy worm or two on top, partially buried in the cookie crumbs.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving (optional but recommended).

Notes

Use cold milk straight from the fridge for best results. Crush cookies while pudding sets. Don’t overmix the pudding. Keep extra gummy worms on hand. These taste better after sitting in the fridge for a few hours. Can be made up to 2 days in advance.
