EASY Walking Dirt Cups in a Bag

This EASY Walking Dirt Cups in a Bag Recipe is a FUN walking dessert to make for any occasion! It’s the perfect, portable treat for bar b ques, picnics, beach days, camping, outdoor parties, potlucks or any on the go event! If you’re looking for a yummy, crowd pleasing, portable and downright delicious dessert, you absolutely HAVE to try this walking dessert recipe idea!

You can enjoy this sweet treat any time of the year but it’s a fun Halloween dessert idea for Halloween parties, trunk or treat or trick or treating. It’s the “gross me out factor” of dirt, mud and worms that make it appealing as a spooky Halloween treat! Kids really love it…and you probably will too!

This Walking Dirt Cups Recipe can make several, individual portions that will feed a crowd! This variation on the walking taco comes with low prep time. You can quickly create this NO BAKE dessert that will WOW your friends and family in mere minutes! This recipe uses just a few easy to find, common store bought ingredients.

If you can’t find or don’t have access to mini Oreo cookies in a bag you can also layer this Oreo dirt cup dessert in a small clear cup (like it was originally conceived). I’ve found 12 packs of Mini Oreo Snack Pack Bags on Amazon quite easily and you can also find them in grocery stores too.

You can really elevate this walking dessert idea by adding any sort of gross gummy candy. We used worms but you can find all sorts of frightful creatures in edible form. You can also add sprinkles, crushed chocolate cookies or make some homemade whipped cream to go with it.

Walking desserts are easy to assemble almost ANYWHERE and you can create different versions for different desserts just by swapping out some of the components. A few weeks ago we created a Walking Banana Pudding Dessert that used the same concept as this walking Oreo dirt cup recipe.

By trading out a few flavors or components you can have a totally different dessert! When you see how this portable dessert is made you’ll see that it’s super easy to customize for ANY common dessert out there.

EASY Walking Dirt Cups Recipe

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Makes: 5 Bags

Chill Time: 5 Minutes

INGREDIENTS:

1 (3.4 oz.) Box Chocolate Instant Pudding Mix

2 Cups Milk

6 Mini Oreo Snack Pack Bags

1 Tub Whipped Cream (Can also use canned)

15 + Gummy Worms

Other Helpful Tools:

Taco Holders (Will Hold Bags Upright)

How to Make EASY Walking Dirt Cups Step by Step!

1. Make the Instant Pudding

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Chocolate Instant Pudding Mix and milk. Stir until smooth. Move the pudding to the refrigerator for 5 minutes to fully set up.

2. Set Up the Oreo Bags

Open your Mini Oreo Snack Pack Bags and fold over the top of the bag like you see in our photos (this will help the bag stay open and not get in the way as you eat). You can also place them in Taco Holders so they’ll stay upright while you assemble.

3. Add Pudding

Once pudding has fully set, divide it equally among the Mini Oreo Snack Pack Bags. This will simulate the mud!

4. Add Toppings

Add the cool whip or homemade whipped cream to a piping bag with a swirl frosting tip. Add a healthy swirl of whipped cream into each of the bags (you can also use canned whipped cream in a pinch).

Take the remaining mini Oreo snack pack bag and crush the Oreos inside. Spread the crushed Oreos among the bags so it looks like dirt. Place several gummy worms so they look like they are crawling out of the bag. Place a spoon in each bag and serve!

PRO-TIP: Making your own homemade whipped cream is pretty easy if you want to tackle it! Add 1/2 cup heavy cream and 2 Tbsp powdered sugar to your stand mixer with a whisk attachment. Whisk beat the mixture until stiff peaks form. You can also whisk by hand or use a hand mixer.

With this EASY walking dessert idea at your fingertips, you’ll have fun and easy treat for any occasion! Don’t forget to download and print the FREE recipe at the end of this post so you have it on hand when you need it.

Ingredients

• 1 (3.4 oz.) box of instant chocolate pudding mix
• 2 cups milk
• 6 Oreo mini snack pack bags
• 1 Tub of whipped cream
• 15+ Gummy worms

Instructions

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the chocolate instant pudding mix and milk. Place in the fridge to set up for 5 minutes.


Open up 5 of the Oreo mini packs, and stand them up inside of a container so they can be filled. Fold over the top of the bag like you see in our photos (this will help the bag stay open and not get in the way as you eat).


Divide the pudding between each of the Oreo bags.


Add the cool whip to a piping bag with a frosting tip and swirl a healthy dollop into each of the snack bags. You can also use canned whipped cream.


Take the remaining Oreo pack, and crush the Oreos inside. Sprinkle the crushed Oreos over the cool whip. Place several gummy worms into the whipped topping so they look like they are crawling out of the bag. Place a spoon in each bag and serve!

Notes

You can make ahead some of the components (like the pudding), but I'd wait until you're ready to eat to fully assemble because the Oreo cookies can get soggy if you let them sit for too long.

Making your own homemade whipped cream is pretty easy if you want to tackle it! Add 1/2 cup heavy cream and 2 Tbsp powdered sugar to your stand mixer with a whisk attachment. Whisk beat the mixture until stiff peaks form. You can also whisk by hand or use a hand mixer.
