Oreo Dirt Pudding Cake

Oreo Dirt Pudding Cake or also known as Dirt Cake is an “oldie but goodie” classic Midwestern dessert from the groovy 70’s.  I’m from the Midwest, so I know this dessert well.  Maybe too well!  My whole family loves it!

It’s made with crushed Oreo cookies, pudding, cream cheese and whipped cream and those crushed Oreos is what gives it that dirty look, which translates to delectable Oreo Dirt Pudding Cake. 

Kids, as well as adults will love this with these chocolate covered strawberries representing carrots and some chocolate Easter eggs laying on top, making it a fun dessert for Easter and Spring, don’t ya think? 

I’ve seen these Oreo Dirt Pudding Cakes with gummy worms and marshmallow bunnies on top too, and of course, you can leave all the accessories off, it’s all good. 

You can also put this in a layered trifle bowl, or make individual desserts depending on how you want to present your dirt pudding.

You can even change up  the pudding flavor with chocolate pudding or vanilla pudding.  I used white chocolate pudding. YUM! 

I made this with whipping cream instead of Cool Whip, because I love fresh whipped cream. It makes this dessert super creamy and should I dare-say even more super addictive?  

Cookies and cream combo…what’s not addicting about that?   

Not a thing… 🙂  

This luscious dessert is definitely the one to take to a potluck or any party and trust me…it will always be a hit!  Of course, as I mentioned earlier, always perfect for Easter, spring and Halloween too!  I should probably mention, 4th of July, BBQ’s and for summer definitely because it’s no-bake!

Let’s have some!  It only takes 15 minutes to whip together.
