Halloween Dirt Grave Dessert Cakes for a Spine-Chilling Soirée
Ingredients:
- 1 packaged Oreo cookies (15.5 oz)
- 8 oz Cream Cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup Butter, softened
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar
- 16 oz Cool Whip
- 2 boxes of Instant Chocolate Pudding Mix (3.3 oz each)
- 3 cups Milk
- 1 package Milano Cookies
- Gummy Worms and Candy Pumpkins (optional)
- Wilton Black Writing Icing
Instructions:
- Start by giving those Oreos a good crush in a food processor until they resemble spooky graveyard dirt. Set aside about two-thirds of the crushed Oreos for later use as our eerie graveyard topping.
- Next, let’s summon the creamy goodness! With a handheld or stand-up mixer, blend the softened cream cheese and butter until they form a smooth, velvety texture. Then, stir in the powdered sugar and Cool Whip for that extra hauntingly delightful touch.
- In a separate cauldron, whisk together the milk and chocolate pudding mixes until they concoct a devilishly good blend. Fold this eerie mixture into the cauldron of cream cheese goodness we prepared earlier.
- Now, pour this spellbinding mixture over the crushed Oreos in a 9X13 pan, creating a ghostly layer of deliciousness.
- Sprinkle the remaining crushed Oreos over the top of this deliciously haunting concoction.
- Let the magic set by covering the pan and placing it in the depths of your refrigerator for a minimum of 2 hours before serving. This chilling period ensures the flavors meld together for an otherworldly taste.
- Just before the grand reveal, it’s time to summon the spirits to decorate our dessert graves. Use the Wilton Black Writing Icing to inscribe “RIP” on the Milano cookies, transforming them into tombstones. Place them amidst the dirt-covered delight to give the impression of a spooky graveyard. Add some gummy worms and candy pumpkins for that extra frightful touch.
