This recipe I always seemed to manage to lose, find and lose again. This time I'll put it up for all to share. We used to have a lot of fun with this one, my sisters and I.

Dirt Cake
• Ingredients
• ¼ lb. Butter; room temp.
• ½ lb. Powdered Sugar
• 8 oz. Cream Cheese; room temp.
3 ½ c. Milk
• 12 oz. Cool Whip
• 2 pkg. Instant Vanilla Pudding; small
• Large pkg. Oreos; freeze 1 hour
• Directions
• Make sure the butter and cream cheese are at room temperature. Beat together butter, powdered sugar and cream cheese; until smooth.
• In another bowl, beat together milk, cool whip and pudding; until smooth.
• Mix together the 2 batters; blend well.
• Crush oreos in blender until fine.
• In an 8 ½ inch plastic flowerpot, starting with pudding mix, make 2 layers each pudding then oreo ending with the oreo mix on top. Garnish with plastic, or edible flowers, gummy worms, anything you think is appropriate. Keep refrigerated.

Well, there you have it. Now that Cool Whip makes different flavors, if you like expiriment with them. I would use the extra creamy kind. You can use an off brand of Oreos, of you wish, but oreos are best. This can be fun for kid's parties. We loved having it at parties with the gummy worms, as all our friends believed us that it was real dirt. (We used to make mud pies together all the time with real mud and worms.)
