Mud & Bugs - Edible "Dirt" Treat

• Chocolate Ice Cream
    or Chocolate pudding
• Chocolate Cookie Crumbs
• Gummy Worms
    or other Gummy Bugs of choice
• 6 or 8 ounce plastic cups (preferably clear)

Fill plastic cups 3/4 full with either softened Chocolate Ice Cream or Instant Chocolate Pudding. If using pudding, refrigerate as directed before continuing.

Lay 4, 5 or 6 gummy worms in the cup so they hang over the side a bit and then cover them with enough chocolate cookie crumbs to not quite fill the cup. This gives the very cool effect of worms or bugs crawling out of a cup full of dirt but tastes a whole lot better than that.

OPTIONAL CREATIONS:
For added effect you can use small clay pots instead of plastic cups. You can also add plastic flowers standing up in the middle for a tasty gift.
