Summer Treats...Dirt Dessert by Ever Ready
Ingredients:
  • 1 package of Oreo cookies crushed
  • 1- 8 0z cream cheese
  • 2/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 small box vanilla pudding
  • 12 oz cool whip
  • gummy worms
Directions:
  • Prepare pudding according to directions and set aside to cool.
  • Mix together powdered sugar and cream cheese and fold in cool whip.
  • Layer the crushed cookies, then the pudding mixture. In between layers, place gummy worms on top of the final layer.
  • If using a sand pail, use a new shovel/spade to serve dessert.
  • If using a flower pot, put a flower in the middle layer as a garnish.
Smore's on a Stick

Ingredients:

  • 20 large marshmallows
  • 8 oz chocolate melting wafers
  • 1 cup Graham cracker crumbs
  • 20 treat sticks
Directions: 
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Take one of the treat sticks and press it through the center of a marshmallow.

  • Melt the chocolate melting wafers until smooth. Do not overheat, or your chocolate will seize up and become chunky and unusable.

  • Dip the marshmallow into the melted chocolate until it is halfway up the sides of the marshmallow. Immediately after, dip the marshmallow into the graham cracker crumbs.

  • Place the pop on your prepared cookie sheet. Repeat the process 19 times. Then, refrigerate the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes.


Notes

Depending on the depth of your chocolate vessel, you may need to rotate the stick on its side a bit in order to get the chocolate up on the sides of the marshmallow.
