Instructions

Making Red, White and Blue Dirt Cups is simple and fun! Follow these easy steps:

1. Combine Pudding Mix and Milk: In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and milk for 2 minutes. Let it sit for 5 minutes until it thickens.
2. Fold in Whipped Topping: Gently fold in the whipped topping into the pudding mixture until well blended and creamy.
3. Crush the Cookies: Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a plastic bag and crush them into fine crumbs using a rolling pin or your hands. Set aside 1 cup of the crumbs for layering.
4. Prepare the Cups: In clear plastic cups or small glass jars, begin layering your ingredients. Start with a layer of the cookie crumbs at the bottom.
5. Add Pudding Layer: Spoon on a generous layer of the vanilla pudding mixture on top of the cookie crumbs.
6. Add Berries: Place a layer of sliced strawberries followed by a layer of blueberries over the pudding.
7. Repeat Layers: Continue layering cookie crumbs, pudding, and berries until you reach the top of the cups. Finish with a final layer of whipped topping.
8. Decorate: Top with the reserved cookie crumbs, additional berries, and sprinkles if desired.
9. Chill: Cover the cups with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.

These straightforward steps will guide you in creating these incredible dirt cups without any fuss.
