Dirt Cake

This is a fun recipe that especially appeals to young kids. 

Mix together:
8 oz. cream cheese
1 c. powdered sugar
½ stick margarine
Set aside.

In another bowl, combine:
3 ½ c. milk
2 small packages vanilla instant pudding mix
When set, stir in 10 oz. cool whip.

Stir into cream cheese mixture.

Crush one package Oreo cookies. If done in blender, they will really resemble dirt. Layer cream cheese mixture and crushed Oreos in a 9x13 pan. For a fun alternative, layer in a flower pot or a clear glass vase. Put gummy worms in with the layers and top with fake flowers. Use as your centerpiece for dinner then eat! 

Note: To make amount for a smaller flower pot, I halved the pudding, milk and cool whip amounts and crushed only ½ pkg. Oreos. This filled up our pot just right!
