Dirt Cake is fun to serve at family gatherings, or to give as a gift. I've also taken it to church dinners. It not only tastes good but is unique. Ingredients:
1 package (15-1/2 ounces) oreo cookies |
2 clean new plastic flower pots, about 6 inches in diameter |
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1/2 cup butter |
1 cup confectioners' sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
3 cups milk |
2 packages (3.4 ounces each) instant vanilla pudding mix |
1 carton (12 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed |
silk flowers, aluminum foil, gummy worms and clean new gardening tools, optional |
Directions:
1. Crush cookies until they resemble potting soil. Divide half of the crumbs between the flower pots. Set pots and remaining crumbs aside.
2. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter, sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy. In another bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes (mixture will be thick). Fold in whipped topping. Gently fold into cream cheese mixture until blended.
3. Add filling to pots; top with reserved crumbs. Cover and refrigerate until chilled. If desired, wrap silk flower stems in foil; add to flower pots. Decorate with gummy worms and display with gardening tools if desired. Yield: 12 servings.
