Dirt cake can be fun for many birthday themes, including a garden party, creepy crawly birthday theme, a construction theme, or any summer birthday theme.

Here’s the recipe:

1 large pkg of Oreo cookies

1 (12 oz) bowl of whipped topping

1 (16 oz) pkg of cream cheese

2 small pkg of instant french vanilla pudding

1 cup of powdered sugar

3 1/2 cups milk

1/4 cup butter

Optional decorations depending on your party theme:

gummy worms, and bugs

a new garden spade for a scoop

silk flowers or plants

Toy dump trucks, or backhoes

a new flower 8" pot to hold your dirt cake.

In a bowl mix cream cheese, butter, and sugar together. In a separate bowl mix whipped topping, pudding, and milk together. Combine both mixtures together until smooth. Crumble Oreos in food processor or roll with a rolling pin. Layer the Oreos and pudding mixture to the top beginning and ending with Oreos. If you decide to use a clean flower pot, line it with tin foil for added protection. Chill for several hours or overnight. Decorate with gummy worms, silk flowers, or construction toys.
