Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture

  • Pour half of the pudding and cream cheese mixture over the crushed Oreos and spread evenly.
  • Add another layer of the remaining crushed Oreos on top.
  • Decorate the Top
  • Arrange gummy worms and chocolate eggs on top to resemble an Easter-themed garden.
  • If desired, add fresh mint leaves for a decorative touch.
  • Chill and Serve
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld together.

Notes

  • Use chocolate pudding instead of vanilla for an even richer flavor.
  • Swap Golden Oreos for a lighter, vanilla-flavored twist.
  • Add shredded coconut dyed green with food coloring to create a "grass" effect.
  • Serve in individual cups for an easy, grab-and-go option.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
