Servings: 8 cups

Ingredients

▢ 8 Milano cookies, Nutter Butter cookies, or other oblong/oval shaped cookies
▢ 2 ounces black melting candies or semi-sweet chocolate
▢ 8 pre-made chocolate pudding cups¹
▢ 8 to 12 Oreos² crushed
▢ green sprinkles optional

Instructions

Place the Milano, Nutter Butter, or other oblong/oval shaped cookies onto a large baking sheet. Set aside.
In a small microwave safe bowl, melt the candies or chocolate in the microwave in 20 second increments, stirring after each time, until smooth.
Add the melted candies or chocolate to a piping bag with just a very tiny bit of the corner snipped off, a piping bag fitted with a size 1 or size 2 piping tip, or my favorite option, a small cookie decorating bottle fitted with a size 2 piping tip.
Pipe the letters "R.I.P." onto each cookie then allow letters to set and harden.
While the cookies rest, remove the lids of the pudding cups and discard. Stir cups with a spoon or spatula to even out the surface of the pudding.
Spoon 1 heaping Tablespoon of crushed Oreos evenly onto the surface of each pudding cup. If you want to make more than the 8 cups in the recipe, you will need 1 Oreo² per cup. Feel free to add more crushed Oreos, if desired.
Place one R.I.P. cookie into each pudding cup, pushing it down gently until it is securely in place. If the chocolate isn't completely hardened yet, that's ok. Just be careful not to disturb the letters.
If using, add some green sprinkles to the dirt. You may also consider adding pumpkin mellowcremes, gummy worms, or gummy skulls. Pudding cups are best served immediately, as cookies start to get soggy quickly. If traveling to a party, prepare the cups as much or as little as you wish, but save the headstones for last and add them right before serving.

Notes

Pudding cups: you can opt to make your own pudding and put it into dessert cups. Here are 8 mini glass dessert cups.
Oreos: 1 Oreo will give you approximately 1 Tablespoon of crushed Oreo crumbs. If you need more than this because the level of your pudding cups is lower than you'd like, aim for 12 Oreos per 8 pudding cups.
