I was in charge of the treat for the preschool Easter party today. It's been a busy week and I wanted something easy and cute. I decided to do a spring style cup of dirt dessert. It's easy and yummy. I've always used chocolate pudding and chocolate sandwich cookies, but I thought the vanilla was a nice change. And add a peep on top for a color pop and you're done! Best of all the kids really liked it.
2 large boxes of vanilla pudding, made according to directions (I made mine the night before so all I had to do in the morning was assemble. I also used whole milk to make it more rich.)
1 large package of vanilla sandwich cookies, crumbled (I used two rows.)
1 package of gummy worms (I used two worms per cup.)
12 peeps (I used purple and blue chicks.)
12 clear 9 oz cups (be sure and get the clear ones so you can really see the layers and the worms.)
With each cup place 1/4 cup of pudding in the bottom. Then stick the worms in and drape them over the side of the cup so they don't fall in. Next, add a layer of cookie crumbs. I think mine were about a 1/2 inch think. Then add another 1/4 cup layer of pudding, and top it with another layer of crumbs. Add the peep on top and push it down a little to keep it in place. And you're done. This recipe makes, you guessed it, 12 dirt cups.
So cute! I've never seen this kind!
