Pumpkin Patch Dirt Cups put a Halloween spin on a classic dessert that everyone loves!
Background: Pumpkin Patch Dirt Cups are easy to make and perfect for Halloween. Simply adding pumpkin candies transforms this classic dessert into a fun, festive treat. There are many different dirt cup recipes out there, but this one is our favorite. It’s a tried-and-true family recipe that never disappoints. Instead of putting them in dessert cups, you can always make this recipe in a rectangular, cake pan. This is a great recipe to get the kids involved with. It’s incredibly easy to make and everyone will love it!
- 5.9 ounce Instant chocolate pudding mix
- 3 cups cold milk
- Oreo Cookies – Family Size
- 8 ounce Cool Whip Original Whipped Topping

- Take 2/3 of your Oreo cookies and separate the icing from the cookies. Discard icing. Crush the cookies into a “gravel” consistency.
- Next, take the remaining intact Oreo cookies and coarsely chop them.
- Prepare chocolate pudding per instructions on the box. Typically, you’ll whisk milk and pudding mix together for 2 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes.
- Mix coarsely chopped whole Oreo cookies into the pudding mixture. Then, fold in cool whip.
- To construct dirt cups, sprinkle some of the Oreo “gravel” mix into bottom of the dish. Add pudding mixture, then top with more Oreo “gravel” and pumpkin candies.
