Dirt Pudding Recipe

Want to eat dirt today? Great news—you can, and it’s delicious. This pudding looks like something you’d find in a flowerpot after a rainstorm, but it tastes like a chocolatey dream with worms. Not real worms, don’t panic. We use candy. If you’ve got a spoon, a sweet tooth, and maybe a confused plant nearby, you’re ready.

What Is Dirt Pudding?

Dirt pudding is a dessert made with crushed chocolate cookies, chocolate pudding, whipped topping, and gummy worms. It’s cold, creamy, crunchy, and a bit silly. Kids love it. Adults pretend they make it for the kids.

Prep Time

Prep time: 15 minutes
Chill time: 1 hour (optional, but better)

Ingredients

• 1 pack of chocolate sandwich cookies (about 15 oz)
• 2 cups cold milk
• 1 box (3.9 oz) instant chocolate pudding mix
• 1 tub (8 oz) whipped topping
• Gummy worms (as many as your conscience allows)

Instructions

1. Crush the cookies. Use a food processor or put them in a bag and crush them with a rolling pin. Don’t turn them into dust. You want texture.
2. In a bowl, mix the milk and pudding mix. Whisk until smooth. Let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
3. Fold the whipped topping into the pudding. Stir gently until blended.
4. In clear cups or a dish, layer crushed cookies, then pudding mix, then more cookies. Repeat if you feel dramatic.
5. Stick gummy worms in the top layer. Let a few dangle off the edge for that true backyard effect.
6. Chill for an hour if you can wait. If not, dive in and face the consequences (slightly warm pudding).

Serving Tip

Serve in mini flowerpots for full effect. Add a tiny plastic shovel if you’re feeling wild.

Final Words

Dirt pudding is easy, fast, and funny. It’s a perfect dessert for parties, pranks, or lazy Sundays. You don’t need fancy tools or skills—just a sense of humor and a spoon.
