Chocolate Oreo Layered Delight (Print-Friendly Version)

A creamy layered dessert with chocolate pudding, whipped topping, and crushed Oreos finished with gummy worms.

# Ingredients:

→ Pudding

01 - 2 (3.5 oz) packages instant chocolate pudding mix
02 - 3 cups whole milk

→ Whipped Cream

03 - 2 cups cold heavy cream
04 - 1/4 cup powdered sugar
05 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

→ Toppings

06 - 1 (14 oz) package Oreo cookies, crushed (about 2 cups), divided
07 - Gummy worms for garnish

# Steps:

01 - In a large bowl, whisk together instant chocolate pudding mix and whole milk until combined. Let it sit for about 3 minutes until thickened.
02 - Using a stand mixer with a whisk attachment or a hand mixer, beat cold heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
03 - Fold the whipped cream and one-third of the crushed Oreos gently into the chocolate pudding until evenly mixed.
04 - Divide the mixture evenly among five serving cups or one trifle dish. Sprinkle the remaining crushed Oreos on top and garnish with gummy worms.

# Notes & Tips:

01 - For thicker pudding, consider using heavy cream instead of milk or adding gelatin or cornstarch to the mixture following package instructions.
02 - Prepare the pudding and crushed Oreos ahead, but make whipped cream and assemble just before serving to prevent sogginess.
03 - Individual servings are ideal for gatherings, but dirt pudding can also be assembled in trifle dishes or themed containers for special occasions.
