Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Pumpkin Patch Dirt Cups
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the chocolate pudding mix with 2 cups of milk. Whisk the mixture vigorously for about 2 minutes until smooth and well-blended. Let the pudding sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.
  2. Once the pudding has thickened, gently fold in 1 cup of whipped cream using a spatula until just combined.
  3. Layer the cups starting with pudding, fill a third full, then add a layer of crushed Oreos. Repeat these layers until cups are filled, finishing with a layer of crushed Oreos.
  4. Top each filled cup with a dollop of remaining whipped cream and place candy pumpkins and gummy worms on top.
  5. Refrigerate the cups for at least 30 minutes before serving to let flavors meld.
