Pumpkin Patch Pudding Dirt Cups Ingredients
- 24 Oreos
- 1 3.4 ounce box instant pudding
- 2 cups cold milk
- 1 cup Shredded Coconut
- green food coloring gel
- 12 Mellocream Pumpkin shaped candies
How to make Pumpkin Patch Pudding Dirt Cups
In a plastic bag add your coconut and 10 drops of green food coloring. Zip the bag and squish it all around to color the coconut green. Pour the coconut onto a plate and set aside to dry.
In a bowl, using a whisk mix the 2 cups of cold milk with the box of instant pudding mix. Set the pudding aside to set.
While the pudding is setting break apart the Oreos and removed the filling. Then put all the Oreo cookies into a ziplock bag, close it, and smash them into crumbs. I like using a meat pounder for this but a metal spoon will work well to.
When the coconut is dry, the pudding is set and you have smashed all the Oreos, set our 4 dessert cups.
In each one place a layer of butterscotch pudding, then a layer of crumbled Oreos, another layer of pudding, some more crumbled Oreos.
On top of the last layer of crumbled Oreos put the green coconut for the pumpkin patch grass. Then place 3 candy pumpkins on top.
Tada! You have a fun and tasty pumpkin patch pudding cup that everyone will love eating for dessert!
