RECIPE FOR OREO DIRT CAKE RECIPES

Steps:

• Crush 1/2 package of Oreo cookies in bottom of cake pan. (If you have a food processor this will probably be the easiest way) Set aside.
• Make pudding according to directions. Set aside.
• Mix cream cheese, cool whip, powdered sugar together until smooth. Add pudding to mixture. Mix well and pour over cookies in pan.
• Crush the other 1/2 package of Oreos and sprinkle on top of cream cheese mixture.
• Refrigerate for a couple of hours.

Steps:

• Finely crush Oreos in a food processor. Add all but ¾ cup to a large bowl. Add melted butter to bowl and stir until mixture starts to hold together. Pour mixture into 9”-x-9” baking dish and pack into an even layer.  In a medium bowl, whisk together pudding mix and milk until thickened, then refrigerate for 10 minutes to firm up.  In a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar together until no lumps remain.  In another large bowl, beat cream until stiff peaks form.  Fold pudding into cream cheese mixture, then fold in whipped cream until just combined. Pour mixture over Oreo crust and smooth with an offset spatula. Top with reserved ¾ cup crushed Oreos.  Refrigerate until well chilled, at least 3 hours and up to overnight.
