I'm not sure of the actual recipe, but we were just out to dinner at a place that had dirt cups for dessert on the kids menu. All it said was, chocolate pudding, crushed Oreo cookies (it looked they were on top of pudding) and gummy worms on top.

If you're doing a beach party, what about the vanilla sandwich cookies, so it looks more like sand?

I know someone who made this with vanilla pudding, creamcheese & coolwhip mixture, and crushed vanilla wafers to make it look like sand. It was sooo yummy. She also put it in a sand bucket to look "authentic". too cute
