How to Make Dirt Pie
This step by step process may seem like a lot, but it came together very quickly and is super easy.
Step 1: Crush the cookies in a large zip lock bag using a rolling pin or crush them in a food processor. Layer half of crushed cookies in the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan. Save the other half of the crushed cookies for the topping.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, add the french vanilla pudding and milk. Mix until fully combined. Allow the pudding to sit in the refrigerator for about 5 minutes.
Step 3: While the pudding mixture is setting up, use another medium sized bowl and combine the cream cheese (softened), butter (softened) and powdered sugar and, using an electric mixer, beat until fluffy and fully combined.
Step 4: Add the cream cheese mixture to pudding and fold in until fully combined.
Step 5: Add the Cool Whip to the pudding and cream cheese mixture and fold until until fully combined.
Step 6: Pour the mixture into the 9x13 inch pan.
Step 7: Sprinkle remaining cookie crumbs on top of the mixture.
Allow the dessert to cool in the refrigerator for two hours before serving.
How To Store Dirt Pie
This recipe can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. I left the dessert in the 9x13 inch pan and covered with Press 'n Seal and it stayed well preserved for the full 5 days. The last piece was as delicious as the first! The below picture is the last piece!
I hope you give this recipe a try; it is Forkin' Good!
