Notes
Tips & Variations
- To save on time, use premade pudding cups from the store and add crushed Oreos, candy pumpkins and green icing. Or you can divide out into plastic cups.
- Add some gummy worms to look like they are crawling from the "dirt" for fun!
- If you want more cookies, add a layer of pudding, crushed Oreos and then repeat again.
- Take a shortcut with the icing and use frosting in a tub, tint it green and pipe it out.
