Updated at: Tue, 19 Sep 2023 11:24:44 GMT

Step 1

Whisk together pudding mix and cold milk in a mixing bowl until smooth.

Step 2

Place bowl in the refrigerator to soft set, about 10 minutes.

Step 3

Reserve about 1 1/2 cups of whipped topping to make ghosts later. Then take the pudding out and fold in the remaining whipped topping.

Step 4

Place the bowl back in the refrigerator to chill for at least 15 minutes or up to 3 days.

Step 5

Lay the Milano cookies or chocolate-covered graham crackers out on a baking sheet.

Step 6

Write years or RIP on the cookies.

Step 7

Add 6-8 Oreo cookies to a food processor and crush them into crumbs.

Step 8

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 9

Add 2-3 blocks of Almond Bark to a microwave-safe bowl.

Step 10

Heat in the microwave for 1 minute, remove and stir. Continue cooking for 10-20 seconds until the chocolate is almost melted. Stir until completely melted and smooth.

Step 11

Transfer chocolate to a plastic decorator bag or resealable bag and snip off a small amount of the end of the bag.

Step 12

Create trees by piping melted chocolate onto parchment paper. Let set for 10-15 minutes until hard.

Step 13

Divide chocolate pudding filling into serving dishes or a 13×9 glass dish. **see notes

Step 14

Sprinkle a layer of chocolate cookie crumbs over the pudding mixture.

Step 15

Use the reserved cool whip to make “ghosts.” Then add the decorations and gummy worms to the cups.

Step 16

The number of servings for this dessert will depend on the serving dishes chosen. Use dessert cups, clear plastic party cups, or a 13 x 9-inch baking dish.

Step 17

Make the components ahead of time but don’t assemble the dirt cups until right before serving, or the cookies might become soggy.

Step 18

If possible, use a food processor to make the Oreo dirt. Crushing them with a rolling pin won’t result in fine crumbs.
