Dirt cake is a general term for several American cake recipes that use sandwich cookies and pudding in combination with other ingredients to create desserts that have a dirty look. The simple dessert is made by combining crushed Oreo cookies on top of chocolate pudding or cream cheese, and adding gummy candy worms on top.[1][2][3] Variations include vanilla wafers, vanilla pudding,[4] and cream cheese pudding in the recipe.[3]
