No baking required.
Just the dessert from every ’90s party.
Crushed cookies, creamy pudding, gummy worms. Dirt cake never should have left.
You know this one. It showed up at every birthday party and potluck. Crushed Oreos on top, so it looks like dirt... gummy worms poking out. Pure nostalgia in a cup.
Here’s the whole thing. Crush a pack of chocolate sandwich cookies. Beat cream cheese, butter, and powdered sugar until smooth. Fold in vanilla pudding and whipped topping. Layer the cream and the crumbs. That’s it. No oven, no baking, no stress.
Chill it for a few hours so it sets. Add the gummy worms right before serving. It’s creamy, cool, and dangerously easy. I made one for a cookout and it vanished first.
Why does it still win? It’s cheap, fun, and everyone smiles when they see it. In other words, it’s a crowd-pleaser. Crush, layer, chill.
