google_protectAndRun("ads_core.google_render_ad", google_handleError, google_render_ad); Cream together cream cheese, powdered sugar and softened butter.

Mix 3 1/2 cups milk and instant pudding for 2 minutes and add 12 oz. Cool Whip.

Add liquid mixture to creamed mixture.

Place Oreo cookies in large ziploc bag and crush to desired "dirt" texture with a rolling pin.

Put 1 1/2 inches of cookie crumbs on the bottom of the sandpail or flower pot(lined with aluminum foil) and layer the pudding mixture and crumbs. End with pudding mixture. Refrigerate for 2 hours.

Just before serving, add 1 more inch of cookie crumbs and decorate with gummi worms.

If you're using a flower pot, poke a few silk flowers - or real flowers with stems covered in foil - into the cake. (Large colored Gerbera daisies look best!)

Serve with a colorful plastic trowel.

Place a card with this verse on it next to the Flower Pot -

I know I look strange but dig right in
The flowers are fake but the dirt is cake
I don't need water or tender loving care
Just eat my dirt until my pot is bare.
