 Dirt Cake (fun for kids!) 

 

Ingredients

1 - 20 oz. package Oreo庐 Cookies
2 - 3陆 oz. packages vanilla instant pudding
3陆 cups milk
1 - 16 ounce carton Cool Whip庐
1 - 8 ounce package cream cheese
陆 cup butter
1 cup powdered sugar

Procedure

Chop cookies up in a blender or food processor and set aside. 

Make pudding according to package directions. Stir Cool Whip into prepared pudding. In separate bowl, mix cream cheese, butter and sugar together making sure that all lumps are dissolved. Combine pudding mixture with cream cheese mixture by stirring together. Use a deep glass bowl (preferably not clear) and layer the cream mixture with the chopped cookies beginning and ending with the cookies. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving. 

Hints: Line a plastic flowerpot with a plastic wrap (be sure to use a new pot) to make it all more realistic. Or use a new, unglazed clay pot. If using a clay pot, be sure to sterilize it by placing it in a 350掳 F. oven for at least 2 hours before using. 

Hide a few fun candies like gummi worms, gummi frogs, "rocks" or other such candies throughout.

Before serving stick a plastic or silk flower in the top of the pot, or, better yet, use a couple of real sunflowers with water reservoirs from a florist鈥檚 shop on their ends. Take a few gummy worms and stick in the top of the mixture leaving just the top of their heads peeking out! This will look like a real potted flower! Just make sure you have the extra gummy worms available as there is always a struggle over who gets the worm!

I can see where that would be great for kids, but I don't have any kids anymore!  Thanks, Pat.. Hugs, Grannie
