Remember that “gross” dessert made from pudding and oreos and gummy worms?  Kids love it as is, but imagine how popular it would be if it was made from ice cream instead.

You’ll need:

1. An ice cream ball (or two, depending on how many kids are involved)

2. Ice cream mix (we’ve got some great recipes on this blog)

3. Gummy worms

Here’s how to make this spooktacular dessert:

As the kids are making the ice cream in the ice cream ball, fill the bottom of your cups with crushed oreos.  Once the kids are done making the ice cream, scoop out a layer of vanilla or chocolate ice cream and put it on top of the layer of “dirt”.  Let the kids cover it with another layer of cookie crumbs, then ice cream… as many layers as they want (and will fit in the cup).  The final layer should have cookie crumbs so the worms have a place to rest.  Top each cup with one gummy worm.
