What is dirt pudding made of?
Although it sounds gross, dirt puddings are very yummy and so much fun to make. The dirt layer is made from crushed Oreo biscuits and then this is layered with a shop-bought or homemade pudding. In my recipe, the vanilla pudding is colored to give it an orange hue to match the Halloween theme.
How long will dirt pudding dessert cups last in the fridge?
Up to 2 days but I recommend adding the decorations just before you serve this tasty dessert.
What else can I use to decorate the Halloween dirt pudding recipe?
You could use other things such as tombstone cookies, gummy candies, milk chocolate chips, cool whip, whipped heavy cream, edible googly eyes or any other edible Halloween or Fall decorations on top of the pudding.
