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.
