Halloween Dirt Cups are fun, no-bake layered desserts made with chocolate pudding, crushed OREOs, Cool Whip, and gummy candies—perfect for spooky parties or last-minute Halloween treats.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pack (3.9 oz) Jell-O Chocolate Pudding Mix
  • 2 cups cold milk
  • 1/2 cup Cool Whip (or whipped cream)
  • 15 OREO cookies, crushed (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • 12 gummy worms or other Halloween-themed gummy candies

Instructions

  1. Thaw frozen Cool Whip overnight in the refrigerator if using.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat chocolate pudding mix with chilled milk until smooth and thickened (about 2-3 minutes).
  3. Fold Cool Whip into the pudding until well combined.
  4. Crush OREO cookies in a food processor or place them in a zip-lock bag and crush with a rolling pin.
  5. Assemble dessert cups by layering pudding first, then OREO crumbs. Repeat if desired.
  6. Top with gummy worms and Halloween candies for decoration.
  7. Serve chilled and enjoy!

Notes

  • Only assemble 1–2 hours before serving to avoid soggy cookie crumbs.
  • Store pudding and cookie crumbs separately if prepping ahead.
  • Use homemade whipped cream as an alternative to Cool Whip.
  • Add alcohol like Baileys or Kahlua for an adult version.
  • Decorate with candy eyes, tombstone cookies, or marshmallow ghosts for a festive touch.
