Next, make the pudding. Pour the dry pudding mix into a large bowl, then add
the cold milk. Whisk everything together until all of the dry pudding dissolves and its
smooth and free of lumps.
5.
Let the pudding sit for about 5 minutes, until it thickens and is no longer
liquid. If it has the delightfully gloppy texture of pudding, youre ready to go on.
6.
Add the whipped topping and approximately half of the cookie crumbs. You
dont have to measure, just eyeball half the bag and pour it in.
7.
Gently stir everything together until the streaks of whipped topping disappear,
and the cookies are well-mixed into the pudding.
8.
Divide the pudding mixture evenly between eight cupseach should hold a
little over -cup of pudding. You can fill them however youd likeI prefer to use a large
ice cream scoop because I think its a little neater and faster that way.
9.
Tap the cups on the countertop a few times to level the pudding, then insert 3
gummy worms into the pudding and press them down a little so that theyre embedded.
10.
Pour the cookie crumbs over the pudding and gummy worms so that the entire
top is covered with dirt. Smooth it into an even layer with your hands.
