Recipe Introduction
What I really like about this cake, which the kid's like for their birthday cake, is that it's so easy to make that even a lousy cook, like me, can do it. If you make a mistake it will probably taste even better! And it's so fun to make that even the birthday child likes to help. It's best to surprise your child the first time you make it though, because when they come across the worms they will have that 'ouuuah' look on their face that is priceless to see.
By the way, it's great for all ages too, and if the teens don't like the gummy worms they can give the gift of a worm to someone they love... and they wash pretty good too.
List of Ingredients
A regular sized package of Oreo (or Mint Oreo) cookies. For a variation in taste - add a half dozen mint cookies.
Small tub of Whipped cream
Instant Pudding - Chocolate or Vanilla or whatever desired (For a big dirt cake use two or more packages)
Milk (for the instant pudding)
Gummy Worms (some stores offer this in the bulk/bins food section)
Recipe
Procedure
Put the Oreo cookies in the freezer, at least overnight. This makes the cookies easier to blend in the blender to crush into a 'dirt like' substance. Make 'dirt' with the whole package.
Make up the Instant Pudding and add the whipped cream. I like to swirl the combo and not completely mix it.
OK - Put a layer of Oreo dirt in the bottom of the cake pan then a layer of pudding/cream mix. Now put the worms strategically in the pudding. Gross,... it looks so real!
Put another layer of pudding and Oreo dirt and then cover and put the cake in the refigerator for an hour or more. (This "worm" cake can be layered as many times as there are ingrediants.)
This is a no-stress dirt cake. Have fun making it, looking at it and eating it. Trick candles are fun for this type of cake, and vanilla ice cream on the side.
