Description
Delicious and festive Dirt Cake, perfect for Easter celebrations!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups crushed chocolate butter biscuits (like digestive biscuits or Marie biscuits)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 package (3 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 2 cups cold milk
- 12 oz whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed
- 1/2 cup crushed chocolate butter biscuits (reserved from base)
- 1/4 cup chocolate chunks
- 1/4 cup chocolate shavings
- 1 cup candy-coated chocolate eggs (like Cadbury Mini Eggs)
- Optional: pastel sprinkles
Instructions
- Crush the chocolate butter biscuits using a food processor or by placing them in a ziplock bag and crushing them with a rolling pin. Mix the crushed biscuits with the melted butter in a medium bowl until evenly combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish to create an even layer. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to set.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, softened butter, and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl, whisk the vanilla pudding mix and cold milk together for 2-3 minutes, or until thickened. Gently fold the whipped topping into the pudding mixture until fully combined, then fold the pudding mixture into the cream cheese mixture to create a light, fluffy filling.
- Spread the fluffy middle layer evenly over the chilled cookie base, using a spatula to smooth it out.
- Sprinkle the reserved crushed biscuits, chocolate chunks, and chocolate shavings over the pudding layer. Decorate with candy-coated chocolate eggs and pastel sprinkles for a festive Easter appearance.
