Description

These Pumpkin Patch Dirt Cups are spooky-cute, deliciously layered Halloween treats made with creamy pudding, crushed Oreos, and adorable candy pumpkins on top! Perfect for kids’ parties and make-ahead Halloween fun!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (3.9 oz) box instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 2 cups cold milk
  • 1 (8 oz) tub whipped topping, thawed
  • 15 chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreos), crushed
  • 1012 candy pumpkins
  • Small plastic or paper cups (8–10 servings)
  • Green frosting or icing (for vines – optional)

Instructions

  1. Make Pudding: In a large bowl, whisk pudding mix and cold milk for 2 minutes. Let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
  2. Fold In Whipped Topping: Gently fold in the whipped topping until fully combined and smooth.
  3. Assemble Cups: Spoon a layer of crushed cookies into the bottom of each cup, followed by a layer of pudding mixture. Top with more crushed cookies to resemble “dirt.”
  4. Decorate: Add candy pumpkins on top. Use green frosting to pipe vines or leaves for extra pumpkin patch flair.
  5. Chill: Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

These can be made up to 1 day in advance. Try gummy worms for a spooky twist! Great for classroom parties or Halloween dessert tables.
