Graveyard Dirt Cake

Mickey made this dessert for a competition she did with friends - the "hooked on desserts" challenge. She made this up based on traditional dirt cake, and it sounds so good - I will definitely be making it! And look how cute it turned out, love. Creative girl :)

Since she didn't follow an actual recipe I'm going to just tell you how she did it - you're going to have to wing it but I can tell that it's not going to matter how you assemble it or what amounts you use...it's going to taste good no matter what!

The layers are pudding, cream cheese mixed with cool whip, and crushed oreos. She used one box each of chocolate pudding and oreo pudding (follow the directions on the box to make it). For the cream cheese layer, beat some cream cheese in a bowl until fluffy (you can add a bit of powdered sugar to this if you want) then fold in some cool whip.

In a 9 x 9 pan (you can do it in 13 x 9 but she wanted it to be thicker) layer half of the chocolate pudding, oreo pudding, crushed oreos, and cream cheese mixture; repeat with remaining ingredients ending with crushed oreos on the top. Decorate with candy headstones and bones (she found them at Walmart), and other candy if you want. She wrote her dessert competitors names on the headstones - haha!

Yay, and she won the competition - here's their "trophy":
