Ingredients
  

  • 1 pack chocolate pudding (prepared) store-bought or homemade
  • 1 cup cookie crumbs Oreo cookies crushed finely
  • 8 gummy worms gummy worms for decorations
  • 1/2 cup whipped cream for ghosts and topping
  • 4 large marshmallows to make ghost shapes

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Small serving cups or jars
  • Spoon or spatula
  • Plastic bag or rolling pin for crushing cookies
  • Piping bag or spoon for whipped topping

Method
 

  1. Begin by crushing Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a plastic bag and rolling pin or a food processor; set aside.
  2. Spoon the prepared chocolate pudding evenly into each small serving cup or jar, filling about halfway to create the ground layer.
  3. Sprinkle a generous layer of cookie crumbs over the pudding, mimicking dirt and creating a textured surface.
  4. Place gummy worms on top of the cookie crumbs, partially buried to look like they’re writhing through the dirt landscape.
  5. Use a piping bag or spoon to add small dollops of whipped cream on top of the marshmallows, shaping them into ghost figures with tiny details if desired.
  6. Break the marshmallows into smaller pieces or cut them into ghost shapes and place them atop the whipped cream to create spooky ghost décor.
  7. Once assembled, serve immediately for a fun, spooky effect or chill briefly to firm up the toppings before serving.

Notes

You can customize the decorations with more candies or edible eyes for extra spookiness. For best presentation, prepare just before serving to keep whipped ghosts fluffy and gummy worms fresh.
