Pumpkin Patch Dirt Cups

Pumpkin Patch Dirt Cup

I love dirt. And by dirt, I mean the delicious dessert comprised of layering Oreo crumbs and chocolate pudding. :)     We made these cute pumpkin patch dirt cups to take to a fellowship dinner at our church last night. They would also be great for school snacks or even a Fall Party! They are super easy and delicious! They were inspired by our Chicks and Dirt Dessert from Easter and I think they turned out even cuter! Here’s what you’ll need: Package of Instant Chocolate Pudding 2 Packages of Oreos Pumpkin Candies Green Sour Punch Straws Clear Plastic Cups  

Pumpkin Patch Dirt Cups 1. Prepare the instant pudding according to the package instructions and pulverize the Oreos in a food processor (we have a Ninja and it works great for this purpose).

 

        Pumpkin Patch Dirt Cups 2. Layer the Oreos and pudding in a clear plastic cup.

 

      Pumpkin Patch Dirt Cups 3. Put a pumpkin vine in the center (a Sour Straw cut in half) and then three pumpkin candies. If this were a true pumpkin patch, the vine would actually be attached to the stem of the pumpkin. But this is way easier.

 

      Pumpkin Patch Dirt Cups 4. Give your kiddos a spoon and let them dig in! :)

    Great Idea. You could also use Bone Candies & Sour Snakes Gummies or Sweet Snakes Gummies. Most of these can be found for $1.00 at the Dollar Tree.

    Super cute idea! I love it! I have a question, did you crush the whole oreo cookie with the cream? They look so dark, like there’s no cream in it, but I’m assuming it is since you didn’t mention that.

      I am wondering if you removed the cream in the Oreos too!
