Worms and Dirt

Posted on by

Happy BirthdayMy son as I previously mentioned loves Star WArs. This year for his birthday party he wanted to watch all three of the original Star Wars in one day. Prefect party, easy, cheap and the kids are totally occupied for most of it. I looked high and low for a Wilton Cake pan, Yoda, Darth Vader, I really was not that picky however I had no luck. Then I found some Star Wars Cupcake kits on the Williams-Sonoma website. They don’t have them in Canada. No luck there either. After all this work, my son decided he wanted Worms and Dirt. Yes the easiest dessert ever. So I put on some Star Wars guys and voila, Star Wars Birthday Cake!

1. Mix the pudding mixes and milk until combined. Will be thick. Gently fold in the cool whip.

2. Pour mixture into a 11×7 inch casserole dish and top with Oreo crumbs.

3. Top off with worms. Eat and Enjoy!
