Ingredients:
For the Layers:
1 (15.35 oz) package of Oreo cookies, crushed
2 cups cold milk
1 (3.4 oz) box instant vanilla pudding mix
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
12 oz whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed
For the Toppings:
Colorful candy-coated chocolates (e.g., M&Ms)

Directions:
Prepare the Pudding Mixture:
In a medium bowl, whisk together cold milk and vanilla pudding mix until thickened, about 2-3 minutes. Set aside.
Make the Cream Cheese Mixture:
In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth. Fold in the whipped topping, then gently mix in the prepared pudding until well combined.
Layer the Dirt Cake:
In a 9x9-inch casserole dish, spread half of the crushed Oreo cookies evenly on the bottom.
Layer half of the pudding mixture on top of the cookies.
Repeat the layers with the remaining crushed Oreos and pudding mixture.
Decorate the Cake:
Top the final layer with candy-coated chocolates, mini sandwich cookies, and pastel sprinkles to create a festive Easter look.
