  • Total Time15

Ingredients

     Instant vanilla pudding mix

     Instant chocolate pudding mix

     Milk (as called for on pudding packages)

     Red and orange food coloring

     Mini marshmallows

     Oreo cookies (crushed)

     Green edible grass (or green candy strips)


Instructions

1.   Prepare the pudding
Make the vanilla pudding and chocolate pudding separately according to the package directions. Let them set slightly so they’re easy to layer.

2.   Color the vanilla layers
Divide the vanilla pudding into 3 bowls:

     Leave one plain (this will be your yellow layer)

     Dye one bowl orange

     Dye one bowl red

     Stir each until the color is smooth and even.

3.   Start with the “inner core”
Add a layer of mini marshmallows to the bottom of each clear cup.

4.   Add the pudding layers
 Carefully spoon in each layer in this order:

     Plain vanilla pudding (yellow layer)

     Orange pudding

     Red pudding

     Chocolate pudding

Try to spread each layer gently so they stay nicely stacked and visible from the side.

5.   Create the “Earth’s surface”
Sprinkle crushed Oreos on top of the chocolate pudding to look like soil.

6.   Finish with grass
Add a handful of green edible grass on top for a grassy surface.
