Dirt Cake - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 large pkg. Oreo cookies, crumbled (reserve 1 1/2 c. for top)
2 boxes vanilla instant pudding
3 c. cold milk
1 c. confectioners sugar
1 (8 oz.) pkg. softened cream cheese
8 oz. Cool Whip

Preparation

Mix vanilla pudding and milk together.
Set aside.
Cream together the cream cheese, pudding mixture and confectioners sugar.
Using an 8-inch clay pot, spread small amount of pudding-cream cheese mixture in bottom and along sides of pot. Dust bottom and sides with cookie crumbs.
Beginning with cookie crumbs, put a layer of crumbs, followed by a layer of the pudding-cream cheese mixture, then a layer of Cool Whip.
Repeat the layers all the way to the top, putting the 1 1/2 cups of reserved cookie crumbs on top.
(You can stick a silk flower with green leaves in the middle of the pot.
Also, you can use a small garden hand spade as a serving utensil.)
Chill about 1 hour before serving.
