I went to the store and got the ingredients for a dirt cake and a soup I wanted to experiment with. So I made the cake and the soup (good by my standards ) and now I'm just waiting for my man to get off work so we can do something

There are lots of different ways to do it, but here is one recipe:

DIRT CAKE

2 (20 oz.) pkgs. Oreo cookies
1/2 stick butter
1 (8 oz.) cream cheese
1 c. powdered sugar
3 1/2 c. milk
2 sm. French vanilla instant pudding boxes
1 (12 oz.) Cool Whip

Cream the butter, cream cheese and powdered sugar together. Mix pudding together with the milk, add the Cool Whip to pudding mixture. Then blend in with the cream cheese mixture.

Crumble the Oreo's in a blender, leave the cream in the Oreo's.

Line the inside of a clay flower pot with foil. Alternating cookie crumbs and filling, ending with the cookie crumbs on top. Top with gummi worms and a plastic flower.

Children really enjoy this!!!

Oh yeah, it's very unhealthy, but SO good! Umm, there are lots of different recipes, that's just the first one I found when I did a google search, but I guess they want it in a flower pot so that it looks more like "dirt" lol

Yeah kids really love it when it's done like this. They made them once when my little girl was in pre-school. All the kids loved it. (especially when you added the gummy worms) My friend we went to the beach with had the wonderful idea to bring stuff to let the kids make them there. We had 3 little girls and a little boy with us and they had a ball. It was a wonderful little activity to keep them busy after we got back to the cottage at night.
