Sand Pudding Cups

By srumbel

Speaking of beaches, we made this recipe awhile back for Sand Pudding Cups. It was inspired by the Dirt Cake Parfaits we made last year. This time we used Golden Oreos and added an umbrella on top to make it look like the beach. We brought the left over Golden Oreos from this recipe to the beach and had them the last time we went there in Texas. I love these Pudding Cups so much – I think your kids would love them too. In fact, you should make them and bring them to the beach – LOL!!

Ingredients

• 1/2 - 8 oz cream cheese bar, softened
• 1/4 c. butter softened
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1 - 8 oz. container of cool whip
• 1 box instant white chocolate pudding mix (vanilla works too)
• 1 1/2 cups milk
• 1 package of Golden Oreos
• Drink umbrellas

Preparation

Step 1

Begin by smashing up Oreos. I put mine in my food processor and blended until they were crumbs. Set aside.
Mix cream cheese, butter, and powdered sugar with mixer in a medium bowl. Fold in cool whip until well blended. In a separate bowl mix pudding mix and milk with a whisk. Once combined well, add pudding to cream cheese mixture.
Place a few tablespoons of oreo crumbs in your cup or small jar. Add some of the creamy mixture (I do this by adding the creamy mixture to a gallon bag and cutting off the corner so it goes in the jar more easily.) Bang down on a wash cloth on the table to get all bubbles out. Add a few more tablespoons of oreo Crumbs. Top off with some more cream mixture and sprinkle on a few more crumbs. Top off with more crumbs and a drink umbrella.
Refrigerate until ready to serve.
